Being Comfortable with the Uncomfortable
Throughout the course of your career, you’re going to experience a time where you’re uncomfortable. Maybe your beliefs are challenged, you’re put in an unfamiliar situation, or you’re encountering obstacles you’ve never quite had before and aren’t sure how to navigate. Maybe you’re having a difficult conversation with a colleague or making a giant career move. Whatever it is, there’s a chance you’re having to step out of your comfort zone, and that’s not always easy. That discomfort, however, can often lead to incredible transformation and growth. Oftentimes in both our personal and professional lives, we’re faced with challenges and opportunities that force us to make a change. It’s an understatement to say that change can be quite overwhelming, but it’s a dynamic path that we as humans are constantly navigating, and our ability to react to change – to adapt and thrive in a new environment or situation – is extremely important.
