Not sure if this is the forum to put this....

I subscribe to daily life/motivational quotes....I get the above, or some version of it, quite regularly. I completely understand what it is telling me. Personally, I happen to be quite happy in my comfort zone, as most of us are. It allows me to "relax" and be "content". Most all of the stress in my life comes from stepping out of that comfort zone. When you are happy with where you are, is it really necessary to find ways to "grow"? I understand if you are dealing with a problem head on, stepping out and being uncomfortable may be the best way to deal with it, but as I grow older, especially now, I find that I don't want the stress and problems that come from stepping out of my zone and "growing"....I just want stress free and happiness....I feel that sometimes being passive or staying put can offer so much peace in your life.....at least for me....

Not sure why I shared this.....just felt I needed to put it out there somewhere and this is where I chose to do it.....Thanks for reading....

It's nice how quotes as these don't fit everyone, again a beautiful reminder that everyone's different, so are their experiences and perspective on things!

Yours is as valid and justified, given how you see it. 💛

"sometimes being passive or staying put can offer so much peace in your life" ~ this! I felt it in my bones, its sooo me as a persun, big on peace of mind and my emotional-sanity always!

Also a big time believer in:

I feel it could be best of both worlds also, being able to discern what situations need us to be in the proactive mode (like things within our circle of control) and situations otherwise, that no matter how fast we flap our wings, we won't really be reaching anywhere (like with things within the circle of concern/ influence at times).

Peace and stability is so important, and to each their own always. I'm so glad you shared with us!💛
