Something that I find really interesting about humans is that we crave newness and Novelty but we're also really scared of change and uncertainty–it’s a huge contradiction. What I love about thought work is that we get to observe those contradictions and choose what we want to do about them. We want our life to be different, but we don’t want to take the action necessary to create change.

When you feel stuck, your life is in a state of stagnation–you’re not growing, you’re not trying new things, you’ve gotten comfortable with the status quo and aren’t motivated enough to really shift it. The #1 reason people get stuck is that they don’t know how to manage their relationship with discomfort. You get to choose between the discomfort of being stuck and the discomfort of growth. This topic is something that’s discussed a lot in personal growth and success, but I think it’s an especially juicy topic for those of us who live with chronic medical conditions. That’s because our circumstances and medical conditions are a reliable and constant source of discomfort, so we are more familiar with being uncomfortable than your average bear. You might be burnt out by all the discomfort you’ve experienced and just want to be done with it. If that’s how you’re feeling, then this episode is even more relevant for you, because the only way to get relief is to shift the way you perceive and think about this topic.

Get intentional about doing the things that your future self will thank you for. Get out there this week and do something uncomfortable on purpose! Let me know how it goes by sending me a message on Instagram at @mischadelaney.
