It’s certainly been the single most transformative unlock in my own growth journey (both personally & professionally). But I’m starting to believe that *tolerance for discomfort* might have similar transformative potential. I know our heads are spinning right now imagining all the ways in which AI will shape & transform our lives. Imagine what would be possible in the world if discomfort wasn’t something to be avoided. we allow damaged relationships to atrophy we hold back from expressing our needs & wants we push out or avoid difficult decisions

we ask less probing or direct questions we withhold contrarian or unpopular views we mask or choose not to express our emotions we avoid hard but necessary conversations

And once you start noticing it, you see it everywhere. I’m increasingly convinced that *tolerance for discomfort* is a massively untapped superpower with potential to transform our world.Ĭountless situations where people choose the *path of least discomfort* - in their work, in their relationships, in their lives.
