Would you trade 1lbs of discomfort for 100lbs of discomfort?Answer carefully because this is a trick question. We do this all the time.
How often do we do whatever it takes to escape momentary discomfort without giving a second thought to future ramifications?
We don’t do the thing in the moment (talk to the stranger, make the phone call, have the tough conversation, exercise, etc.) and for a fleeting moment we feel relief. But fast on the heels of the relief is guilt, disappointment, “I should of”, the feeling of letting ourselves down, and the like ~ that we replay over and over. Very quickly we have turned 1lbs of discomfort into 100lbs.
This is NOT a wise trade-off!
Much love,
Jonathan
