An essential survival skill that all of us can master to help support us is learning how to be comfortable while being uncomfortable.
A wise man once said, “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.”
If we want different results we will need to do things differently.
A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there.
I’ve noticed that whilst on this mission to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, I often tend to say ‘no.’ I always have an excuse for why I can’t do something and it is invariably pretty lame. Things like ‘I can’t attend the event because I don’t know anyone there.’ Silly small excuses to avoid getting out of my comfort zone.
While there’s always going to be a time and a place for saying ‘no’ to something, saying yes more often brings with it myriad benefits. Among other things, it opens the door to new possibilities, it attracts positivity and it forces you to stretch yourself.
Let’s lean into the experience of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.
Practice it — Embrace it — Say YES to life!
