But here is why... In this podcast he is talking about friction and the "ugly side" of growth. That growing as a person does not mean that it is always pretty and we should always be feeling good about it. If we tie this to breathwork, I do at least 1 Breathwork session a day - Usually 2, but if I work 12-hour shifts then when I come home I want to go to bed immediately because I want to have enough rest. But those breathwork sessions are also not always nice and peaceful, sometimes I am struggling too, making sure I stay seated and focus on the practice, sometimes I am very restless during breathwork.. But I think that is exactly where the growth happens, it happens when we have friction, especially with ourselves. Not feeling perfectly fine, but being okay with that and sit through it. I know David Goggins can make it sound really dark, but it is true what he says and I think everybody could apply his mindset in his or her own way 💪 And another reason I share it is because yeah, I was traveling a lot this weekend and listening to this podcast and I thought: "Hey another one I can share in the Inspiration Monday Post!" sometimes it is also just as simple as that 😝 Here it is 👇 Have a great week! Peace.

I am experiencing this in real life at this very moment. For years, I have been leaning too much into comfort. I watched a lot of Netflix series, played video games too much, I was avoiding hard work, or as something became difficult, I started doing something else. But I've always felt that something was wrong while I was doing this. I always felt somehow guilty towards myself, I was conscious of that feeling, but I was just not conscious that it was because I chose too much comfort. 🤷‍♂️ In today's Western society, it's just way too easy to avoid difficult work, to avoid "negative" feelings. We can just turn on the TV or grab our phone and lose ourselves in screens, walk to the cabinet, open a bag of chips, and start eating it. But while this feels comfortable in the moment for a lot of people, in the long term, it creates a lot of problems, you can think of: - overweight - low energy levels - no focus - constantly being distracted - Not being able to deal with difficult situations - And a lot more.... Here is the reason why discomfort builds a better life: Since I am doing the cold showers every morning, I sit through my breathwork sessions even if they become uncomfortable and since I am working out even when I don't feel like it, and push myself just a little further every time in everything I do, feel way better about myself. 💪 I have way more energy, I feel way more stable. I experience a lot more confidence, I stay calm in difficult and stressful situations, And my overall quality of life just really improved! And now, the moments that I let myself play a video game or maybe watch something on television, I really earned it, and I don't feel guilty about it. Because for years, I have been too easy and too soft on myself, had all kinds of excuses to avoid the hard work - "I am too tired", "Yesterday was a pretty tough day", "Tomorrow I am also busy"... and a lot lot more... Since I stopped listening to these excuses and just became a little bit more tough on myself and chose discomfort over comfort most of the time, I feel like a way stronger person. 🏋️

I did The Discomfort Audit today in the classroom And I discovered I am avoiding work because I just didn't really allow myself to fail. And look like I am new or don't really know what I am doing. I have always tried to keep up this image of myself that makes no mistakes and does an incredible job, but it is delusional. You can't just become an expert from day 1. To be specific, what I usually do with my work is something like that: I close a new client and start working. And then the time comes to edit the first video or make the first thumbnail, then all the struggle starts. First, I will start with distractions, which keeps me safe for 3 or 4 days. But 1 or 2 days before the deadline, it becomes too strong to avoid. And I start working, and sometimes I finish and send the work. But most of the time, I spend too much time on it and ask the client to postpone more and more, and keep avoiding it. Eventually, they will stop expecting the video and say we're done. And ironically, I achieve what I am trying to avoid, which is looking incompetent and being unprofessional by just ghosting these clients. So my solution for that is just to be comfortable with failing and take as many rejections as possible and get a lot of feedback from clients. The goal is not to close clients and get paid, but to get like 5 no's from potential prospects. Or sending the work anyway when the deadline hits, even if I feel like the work isn't done. What happens is I get feedback, change it, and keep improving it. And this quote from Carl Von Clausewitz resonates really well with my situation "A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan next week."
