Red Green Repeat Adventures of a Spec Driven Junkie

Thought: Comfortable and Uncomfortable

One thing I realize in life: everything “comfortable” will eventually become uncomfortable.

For example: watching TV or movies endlessly.

The first movies or episodes of a TV show can be enjoyable. It’s new, fresh, fun.

After five or six hours in a row of them, how comfortable do you feel? How enjoyable is the experience? In my case, it’s a lot less enjoyable than the first hours.

How about the converse? Can “uncomfortable” things become comfortable?

I would argue yes. Uncomfortable things done long enough will eventually become comfortable.

One area I experienced this is my burpee workout. The first time I worked out my body hurt. The next day I woke up and my body hurt even more.

I got through the workout the second day with a sore body and just kept doing the workout.

Now, the uncomfortable aspect of working out is comfortable.

Remember, anything comfortable can become uncomfortable. Anything uncomfortable can become comfortable.
