Growth feels like discomfort.

Life has its own ironies in every single imaginable way. When learning, growing and expanding different aspects, it is as if life shows us the exact of opposite feeling of what it is really happening within ourselves. This is when remaining humble is key in order to accept, embrace and integrate new information. The ability to create the reality we want is directly determined by our willingness to experience the opposite feeling.

Let´s explore the feelings when growing in different aspects of life:

Saving money may have the feeling of having little, while it´s actually making you better financially,

Working out will have you feeling weak while it´s really making your body stronger,

Practicing a sport will have you feeling a beginner while it´s actually making more skilful,

Setting boundaries will have you feeling alone, while you´re creating new healthy relationships in your life,

Digging up your trauma will have you feeling broken while it´s actually healing you,

Learning to meditate will make you feel anxious while it is actually bringing peace to your inner self,

Practicing being kind to people is making you feel weak while it is making you strong in personality and character,

Learning something new makes you feel that you don´t know anything while it´s actually making more intelligent.

«Trying to master any endeavour in life will, most of the time, make us feel the exact opposite».

You have to be okay with being uncomfortable to truly achieve success.

When was the last time you had a feeling of inferiority but in reality you were growing and learning a lot?

Am I often surrounded by people who makes me feel comfortable or people who makes me grow, learn and expand?

Do I normally resist to new challenges or on the contrary, welcome, accept and embrace uncomfortable situations?

May you develop the ability to be okay when facing challenges as signals of growing, expanding and learning.

Youtomic.
