Embracing discomfort means making a conscious decision to pursue challenges and accept uncertainty. It’s about cultivating a lifestyle that views discomfort as a crucible for growth.
This could manifest in various aspects of life, from physical fitness to intellectual pursuits. In fitness, for example, progressive overload is a principle that involves continuously increasing the demands on the musculoskeletal system to gain muscle and strength.
This principle underscores the need for persistent discomfort in the pursuit of physical improvement. It’s why, I’m personally obsessed with Crossfit. Each morning when I show up, I know that I will be challenged by physically and mentally.
