"I don't really like my life right now, but at least there's a level of familiarity and predictability about it. I know what's coming each day and in a way, I'm comfortable with that. It doesn't particularly fulfill me but it doesn't terrify me either. So if it's okay with you, I'll stay here in a holding pattern for forty or fifty years and then I'll die, just like dear old Dad did. There won't be a whole lot of joy or fun, but at least I know what to expect each day."We love
certainty (a dangerous thing to love in a uncertain world), we're addicted to
safety, we seek
familiarity and we want
risk-free(good luck with that). Ironically certainty, safety, familiarity and risk-free... is not where we grow, learn, adapt, change or improve. Or find our best life. In fact, quite often the things that we gravitate towards are our biggest handicap.
