Ever since I found out that doing hard things (aka discomfort that can be overcome or is relatively small) helps your brain connections and development, I strive to be a little uncomfortable everyday. And then at the end of the day or on a rest day being like “I did x even when it was uncomfortable. And it helped me grow. I can now do more hard things for myself. Even if doesn’t really benefit me now. It’s evidence to trust myself”

I do think that social media’s been playing a big role into it now because there is this illusion of perfection so a lot of people are less open to going on the journey to finding themselves and doing things they don’t like in order to get there because they think things should look a certain way.

I work at an engineering consulting firm. The first half of this year almost all of the projects I was involved in (10+) either had major reports due or constant field work. I was regularly working 60 hour weeks. Recently a colleague shared that everyone in the office thought I’d quit because of the workload. I told her I had never considered quitting and that these are just the way things are sometimes if you want to excel at something.

I learned this lesson recently! I had an opportunity to interview for an internship and immediately I was uncomfortable and intimidated. I almost rejected the interview. But I decided, even with all my anxiety, to interview. My chest hurt from the anxiety of it all. Now I’ll be an intern being paid in the fall!
