do you remember the last time you
overcame any obstacle especially a
really big obstacle
what did it for you would push you over
that threshold
what made you decide that enough was
enough and that you had to move beyond
the obstacle there was no other option
there was no other choice
what is the difference that made the
difference
I'll tell you what that difference is
its comfort vs discomfort
more specifically it's the perception of
comfort versus the perception of
discomfort in order to overcome any
obstacle it's the perception of what is
worse overcoming the obstacle are not
overcoming the obstacle will decide the
outcome and I want it sounds strange
why would you not want to overcome an
obstacle it's something you don't want
to overcome an obstacle it's just it's
just that you perceive too much
discomfort in overcoming the obstacle
that it will take too much effort too
much time too much hard work to do it if
you perceive that it is more comfortable
to stay right where you are and not put
in the work and the effort that time to
overcome that obstacle you're stuck
however if your perception is that it's
more uncomfortable to stay where you are
then to overcome that obstacle pack your
bags you're about to go somewhere when
you get to fed up with the way things
are
that's when change happens a good
example of this is health and weight
loss if your idea of comfort is sitting
around overeating watching TV being an
active over the consequences
living an unhealthy lifestyle the health
consequences the lack of energy possibly
even depression you're probably not
going to lose weight and become healthy
however if your sense of comfort is in
the way that you feel when you exercise
and how good you feel when you eat right
you're going to live a healthy lifestyle
you're going to be a lot healthier and
it'll be easy for you to lose weight if
you perceive being broke
being dead asking your having to ask
your friends for money borrowing money
all the time as being more comfortable
than working really hard are working to
advance yourself you're probably going
to stay in that situation however if
putting in the work putting in the
effort so that you could have the money
have the extra time if you perceive that
as being more comfortable you're going
to advance yourself it's a no-brainer
you'll just do it when you decide that
what you want in life is the only option
that anything less would be too
uncomfortable and absolutely going
forward you are going to create the life
that you desire comfort and discomfort
is really only a matter of perception
what you believe they feel like it's a
fact that this is the way things are
but it's not true safer the exercise
example and eating right some people did
they say it as a fact healthy food
doesn't taste good exercises too hard
none of that's true is plenty of us do
it I lots of healthy food that tastes
really good
I had to adapt my taste to the things
that tasted healthy with exercise i
learned to enjoy exercise i found the
exercise that I enjoy there's so much so
many different types of exercise to
choose from some are not even they're
not even exercise exercise is not even
the purpose of them like yoga but you
get exercise in them so there are so
many things to choose from but if you
believe that eating right means you have
to eat terrible food
that exercising is too hard to you
that's reality and it's going to be too
uncomfortable to go and get healthy
however you can flip that and you can
start taking on the attitude that no
sitting around and dealing with that
health consequences that's too
uncomfortable you're talking about
possible disease bad posture passive
possible depression that to me is scary
that stuff is way too uncomfortable I'll
exercise every single day and eat right
because that to me is more comfortable i
will go after my dreams I will do
something every single day to get me
closer to my dreams because to me that
is far more comfortable than sitting
around not doing anything about it are
working for someone else
that to me is too uncomfortable it's a
matter of how you set your attitude to
this there is no right or wrong there is
no this is the way it is comfort and
discomfort is a matter of your
perception you can change that right now
it's like this whole idea of laziness or
lazy people every job I've ever worked i
watched the so-called lazy people work
very hard with lots of effort and time
into dodging their supervisors and
making up these elaborate excuses and
then ultimately getting fired because
we're not getting the work done then you
have to go through the stress of being
out of work and then finding another job
whereas for me it was always about the
easiest thing to do is just to get my
work done and to do it really well so
nobody bothers me and also so I get the
raise and then I get the advances when
you think about whatever stop shooting
from going after your dreams that sense
of comfort and just not doing anything
that comfort of just where you are when
you're willing to tolerate there's also
going to be that part of you that
doesn't like that there's a part of you
that is uncomfortable with
doing anything with not going for your
dreams unfortunately if you're not doing
anything about it that part of you is
not as comfortable as the other part so
let's get uncomfortable for a moment
here take that part of the year that is
uncomfortable that does not like the
fact that you're not doing anything to
move yourself toward your dreams i want
you to imagine what that feeling that
feeling is going to grow what that
feeling is going to be like one year
from now when you do absolutely nothing
to move toward your dream
notice how it gets more uncomfortable
now go out five years from now five
years from now if you've not done
anything to move you seriously move you
toward your dream
how much does that uncomfortableness
grow inside of you get a feel for that
taste that poison
now go out to 10 years 10 years from now
when you've done nothing to really
advance yourself toward your dreams
you've not taken those steps
how much is that feeling of
uncomfortableness grown now go to 20
years
notice how it doubles triples quadruples
now go on to the end of your life you're
lying on your deathbed you're reviewing
your life what is that feeling like
knowing that you never took those steps
toward your dreams toward creating the
life that you desire
what is this called this is called
regret regret is for more powerful and
far more uncomfortable than failing its
for more powerful and for more
uncomfortable than making a mistake you
can correct mistakes you can overcome
failure
it's not much you can do about regret
regret is pretty damned uncomfortable if
you ask me get uncomfortable with your
current situation right now gets so
uncomfortable with it that taking that
first step toward creating a life that
you desire just makes too much sense not
to do
