“Going out of your way to find uncomfortable situations isn’t natural, but it’s essential…
At work, we spend hours (and millions of dollars seeking a place we can defend, a market position and sinecure we can feel safe in.
The road to comfort is crowded and it rarely gets you there.
Ironically, it’s those who seek out discomfort that are able to make a difference and find their footing..
Discomfort brings engagement and change.
Discomfort means you’re doing something that others were unlikely to do, because they’re hiding out in the comfort zone.
When you’re uncomfortable actions lead to success, the organisation rewards you and brings you back for more.”
From Seth Godin’s great new book:
Linchpin: How To Drive Your Career And Create A Remarkable Future.
Highly recommended for those who are ready to start living beyond fears and limitations.
