Notice What Avoiding Discomfort Is Costing You

Avoiding a little discomfort now can sometimes keep you from something that matters more.

We can become very creative when we want to avoid an uncomfortable conversation or an uncertain first step. We may keep preparing, stay busy with something else, or decide that now is not the right time. Sometimes postponing is sensible. Sometimes it is simply familiar. I think it helps to consider the longer view. What is the discomfort you are avoiding, and what are you giving up to avoid it? The answer may change your next decision.
