I can easily look at myself from the outside and see a completely different person. Suddenly, I see myself the way others might see me—with all my traits, not always the ones that would easily be liked by the majority.
I'm not talking about wearing pants backward or sleeping upside down. I'm talking about the discomfort within. Since growth is always associated with stepping out of the familiar cozy 'comfort zone', in order to grow, you need to always (or at least most of the time, outside of sleep) feel the challenge.
