As you progress on this path to a whole self, there is some caution needed. Remember, the ego forms our inertia as it identifies us with a specific way of life. By this token, it can happen that as you become a doer, rising to the occasion regardless of how much fear or pain you feel, you start identifying yourself as a lover of suffering – a hard worker!

But did we not ask you to seek discomfort earlier? Are we contradicting ourselves? Yes, and no. Life happens in balance, so take this as a reminder to ask yourself, “Am I doing this just because everyone says it is ‘hard’? Am I overlooking an easier possibility?”

In a way, this is the age-old debate of being a hard worker vs a smart worker – which one should you be? And to this, we reply: Why not be both? 😉

To the stars!
