The river flows from the mountains to plains, carrying lots of energy and current. After reaching the plains, its current slows down to a serene but continuous flow of water, hungry to meet its ultimate destiny. Similar is old age. When you reach a certain age, your energy and current slowdown, and similarly, your decision-making gets affected accordingly. I am also passing through the same phase of life. That’s the reason I couldn’t come up with any article.
For the past year, lots of pending issues where decisions were required were being deferred by us because of the change and associated probable series of uncertainties which were bound to happen. I discussed it within the family where everyone was in line with my way of thinking, but nobody dared to take the decision because of that current comfort being converted into discomfort owing to uncertainties and their fallouts. Uncomfortable situations are dynamic and bring changes which are necessary for the natural process of evolution. Ultimately, I crossed that thin line of comfort and discomfort and took the decisions. The series of changes thus brought some astronomically positive and favorable changes in our lives, although discomfort, as usual, had been an integral part of that.

As we know, in every situation, we either have to accept or negate. But wisdom says that we must be ready to walk away from a bad proposition, maybe comfortable, to the most practical and suitable alternative, however uncomfortable it would be. Comfortable situations are always tempting and static. In these situations, it always requires internal strength at any point to say no. When we find something that is both uncomfortable but good, the better idea is to find ways of feeling comfortable instead of fighting the obvious resistance while doing it. The only and excellent strategy to feel comfortable in discomfort is to increase your resilience.
Nothing ever changes without discomfort. There’s a difference between peace and quiet. There’s a fine line between pleasure and pain. They are two sides of the same coin where one can’t exist without the other. In fact, we are more alive when we are pushing and fighting. Despite being in pain, discomfort always acts as a catalyst for growth. It forces us to change, stretch, and adapt to achieve the next level of change. Discomfort is a sign of life, progress, and growth. Discomfort guides us toward accomplishment. You can be comfortable but stagnate, or you can stretch yourself and grow.

Welcome adversity. A life without problems is not just unrealistic; rather, it’s boring. Comfort is the silent killer of our dreams and aspirations. Challenges make us explore the boundaries of our comfort zone and frequently confront us with the fear of our perceived limits. We must embrace discomfort when it comes to setting and achieving goals for our lives. If you want to meet yourself, you will have to cross the discomfort zone. Discomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful and purposeful life.
When we often discount or ignore taking a risk, we run the risk of not taking a risk. In fact, the wiring in our brain or psychological programming is done to shore up our safety, security, and social approvals, not to take risks. We may live in a modern world but still inhabit the brains that were wired in our cave-dwelling times when a small ignorance could cost a life. We each have two lives: the one we are living and the second is the unlived life that we have the potential to live. A state of contentment is discouraged by Nature because it would lower our guard against possible threats to survival.

The model of competing emotions offered by coexisting pleasure and pain only fits our reality. Humans are not designed to be constantly happy. We are designed to survive and reproduce. These are difficult tasks. So, we are meant to struggle and survive. If we continuously choose the easy option over the tough ones, we inadvertently deprive ourselves of opportunities to learn skills, gather wisdom, generate strength, build resilience, and unlock the potential that lies dormant within ourselves. Self-empowerment is possible only by having the courage to step into a discomfort zone.
