“Pain doesn’t come from comfort.”

“Comfort is the enemy of progress.”

“If it doesn’t hurt, you’re not growing.”

A wise man once said these, and I could not agree more.

Whether in the gym, in business, or with your family or friends, when challenges show up, so does growth.

IF you are willing to take it head-on, learn from those lessons, and keep moving forward.

Harness that feeling.

Embrace it.

Breathe – get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Know that when you come out on the other side, the growth that you have just experienced will bring on the results you have been looking for.

Push through the pain.

Focus on the goal.

Trust me, the opportunity to become the person you truly want to be is well worth the struggle.
