The path of least resistance is a terrible teacher.
@RyanHoliday Because it will be too common and too mediocre?
@RyanHoliday Progress usually happens from suffering through and overcoming some kind of pain or challenge.
@RyanHoliday so true. the easiest path often doesn’t teach us the valuable lessons that come from struggle and resistance. it's the challenges and obstacles that shape us, pushing us to grow and become more resilient.
@RyanHoliday There's nothing to learn if you never encounter a challenge
@RyanHoliday Or is not the path easy or hard always has lessons- when we listen. But real wisdom and comes not from not from a passive journey , but one infused with mindful introspection at every fork in the road…choosing our path with value-based intention, goals, and a clear purpose.
It might be a terrible teacher but a great vehicle I know struggle build resilience and character But always seeking struggle can develop a bad mindset The wiser you become, you want leverage Things that can give residual results Things that make your important tasks easy to get to Pushing against resistance is necessary for growth But prioritizing ease is a form of self-mastery itself There's no badge of honor for overworking
@RyanHoliday Easy roads often lead to familiar destinations. Challenge, though tough, carves out paths to new horizons. When we dodge discomfort, we miss growth’s lessons. Ever noticed that breakthroughs come after the steepest climbs? Embrace resistance; it’s shaping your story.
@RyanHoliday You should maximise on the person that comes out after the challenge
