I'm just going to start this post by quoting Mark. "That means the more something threatens to change how you view yourself, how successful/unsuccessful you believe yourself to be, how you see yourself living up to your values, the more you will get around to ever doing it"
"There's a certain comfort that comes with knowing how you fit in the world. Anything that shakes up that comfort - even if it could potentially make your life better - is inherently scary." Man, I read that and thought, yep, that's me. There are things I know that I could do to break free from the job I have and gain more freedom over my life, but I am not doing them. I love working on Tiny House designs but am not doing what I need to do to actually build a tiny house, etc. etc. I see this in my life a lot. BUT I also see that I have made changes in my life, huge tumultuous changes. And my life is better for it. So maybe I need to see myself more as someone that benefits and grows from change. As someone who embraces it. As Mark says: "that's what keeps you striving and discovering. And it forces you to remain humble in your judgments and accepting of others." So what are you avoiding?
