  • Avoiding pain leads to more subtle and pervasive forms of pain, so we should proactively confront it while pursuing our goals.

Deep dives

Achieving something can hinder growth

When we achieve something, it can be a problem because we often become attached to our ego and the validation that comes with success. This attachment makes it harder for us to take risks and challenge ourselves. Our fear of messing up the image we have with others stifles our growth. To truly grow, we need to kill our ego, be prepared to face challenges, and not be afraid to get punched in the face.
