Do we really grow when we feel comfortable?. These are the questions that play in my head whenever I think of feeling too comfortable. We all want comfort, we want to feel relaxed and safe, yes, that's what I want, but feeling too comfortable is another case that will bring you low.
I have been a victim of feeling too comfortable a lot of time; it is tough to break until you bring up discipline. Okay, let's take a quick rundown of how it is.
It is really tough for us students, especially Undergraduates in Engineering, you need a lot to process this course, practicals, manuals, SWEP, SIWES, all these needs you to be mentally and financially active. How will you get both when you couldn't get enough time to process one?
The work rate and classes in engineering are just overwhelming, you get stressed sitting on an uncomfortable seat for a 3-hour class, then you rush to finish up your work in the workshop.
Using Hive to boost my creativity and improve my content writing has been of help because I do get Rewards from it which I use to process some things in school. I barely had time to make a post. Whenever I got home from a stressful day in school, I just felt tired and wanted to get rest so I could revise the lectures I had in school.
I wished the semester could end so I could finally be free and make posts. Okay, fast forward to this month, we were done with our exams and I've been home. I wake up daily just feeling so tired to make a post on Hive but I could scroll through all my social media pages, just getting entertained. I felt too comfortable at home, but I thought the problem with not posting was the stress I got daily after school.
I decided to make use of this holiday well, I go out daily to a friend's place or church, and I make use of my time there rather than just resting at home. I learn Photoshop and also navigate Hive. Getting too comfortable will deprive you of many things.
I was now able to know why many jobless people who stay at home feel too tired to look for a job. The comfort at home is conjuring, you need discipline and intervention to get out of it. Move out daily, rather than getting drenched on your bed, it will take a lot to get back on your feet.
