We are creatures of habits. With habits, we find comfort in knowing what to do and expect. Comfort makes things easy and us looking for the path of least resistance.
But the trouble is that comfort is not going to make us grow. It is not going to make us better nor more just. Because we are comfortable with our status quo.
We get so comfortable that we fail to see our mistake, injustice, and ignorance. We are trapped. To free ourselves, we need to make discomfort our friend. How? You ask.
May I suggest: Speak up against the injustice, tell the inconvenient truth, and take on the uncomfortable. Or if you prefer a more leisured approach, travel.
What other ideas to you have on making discomfort your friend?
