Training your mind to deal with discomfort
When learning something new or putting yourself in uncomfortable situations, it's common to feel overwhelmed. This happens because your mind hasn't been trained to handle such situations yet. Similar to training a muscle, you need to expose yourself to discomfort and repetitions to build mental resilience. Your initial reaction may be to retreat to pleasurable and comfortable activities to avoid discomfort. However, this closes you off from growth and expansion. Learn to give your mind time to adjust and embrace discomfort as a part of the learning process.
