#316 Choosing Courage Over Comfort
Manage episode 482276337 series 3557145
Growth and comfort don't usually ride in the same car. We often say we want change, but when it arrives dressed as awkwardness, risk and hard conversations, we retreat to our comfort zones instead of embracing the opportunity.
• Choose courage over comfort for personal and professional growth
• Courage sounds like "I don't feel ready, but I'm willing"
• Breaking routines that aren't working anymore requires bravery
• Stuck never leads to joy, but courage does
• Courage is often quiet—simply showing up, not quitting, continuing to become
• Consider doubling down where you see movement and shutting down areas without progress
• Book recommendation: "The Comfort Crisis" by Michael Easter
