Comfort drift

Tuesday, June 3
Comfort is the killer.
Look at the decisions you’ve made lately - could be this past week, month, year… maybe your whole life.
What’s been driving them?
Not risk.
Not failure.
Comfort.
You don’t apply for the new role. Not because it’s risky, but because it’s more comfortable to stay put.
You don’t speak up. Not because you don’t have something to say, but because it’s more comfortable to stay quiet.
You don’t train. Not because you’re lazy, but because it’s more comfortable to sleep in.
Comfort is what we naturally drift to. It’s what our autopilot is set on. It’s what soudns “reasonable'“ to us. Yet what feels comfortable today keeps you stuck tomorrow.
You weren’t made for comfort.
You were made for growth.
For challenge.
For impact.
Stop letting comfort make your decisions.
Start letting potential lead the way.
Keep chopping wood. 🪵🪓
