About This Quote

Comfort is a stance of avoidance rather than the pursuit of excellence. Comfort is a feeling of being secure and safe, it is what you feel when you have no worries or anxiety. But comfort can also be a trap that keeps you from achieving your potential. In order to become rich, powerful, or influential, you need to do things that make you uncomfortable.

This is the difficult part. Most people would rather avoid what will make them uncomfortable and be sedate in their lives by choosing comfort over excellence.
