Ease is defined as “freedom from worries or problems.” And doesn’t that sound good? Who always wants to worry and think about problems, right?
But ease is also defined as “the absence of effort,” which doesn’t sound so good at all unless all you want is to just get by in life—here today and gone tomorrow without making much of a difference except exist.
So, when I was asked whether I consider myself to be in my comfort zone, I took a moment to assess where I am already in my life. Is it the kind of life I imagined to be in? Have I settled in comfort at the risk of missing out on a better way of living life?
For days, I’ve been thinking about ways how not just to become a spectator of my life but a proactive participant, and I have concluded that the discomfort unknowns bring isn’t as bad as I initially thought.
Often, memorable experiences and discoveries stem from exploring the unknown.
