Why You Should Make Yourself Uncomfortable

Why do you think people can excel in extremely risky situations: the soldiers of the military who put their lives on the line but perform optimally, or the circus people who balance on rope, risking the possibility of falling and severely hurting themselves. It’s because, through practice, they embrace and adapt to the uncomfortability of their job in order to excel. The only way you can grow and develop as an individual is to continue moving forward through stressful experience.

Imagine your level of comfortability to the degree that a rubber band is being stretched. A rubber band without being elasticized is at its resting state: that is you at full comfortability experiencing minimal stress. When you stretch the rubber band, it is tight and naturally desires to go back into its original resting state. When you place yourself into uncomfortable positions, all you want to do is go back to a comfortable, resting environment.

The trick to development is to remain in that stretched, uncomfortable state because, like a rubber band, if you are elasticized in that position for a significant period of time, when you go back to your resting state, you become more adaptable to going back to that uncomfortable position again. A rubber band that is stretched develops resilience to that position and develops a greater ease to reach that level of flexibility again.

Whatever you suck at in life, whether its communicating with people or your self-confidence, you will only improve if you continue pushing yourself into uncomfortable environments.
