Variety, Uncertainty and A Sense of Adventure: Necessities in Avoiding Stagnation
“The quality of your life is directly related to how much uncertainty you can comfortably handle.” Tony Robbins
Comfort is nice it’s what we most favour. However, comfort can allow us to fall into stagnation. It is here we stop progressing. It is here that our existence becomes less enjoyable and more sufferable. It is here most of us need to escape.

This can be detrimental in living a free, fulfilled and happy life. (more…)

It was also narrated by Jeremy Irons – a very suitable and enjoyable voice to listen to. You can 2 Free audio books when you trial Audible here today.

What makes the other person in a relationship feel greater will ultimately be the thing that takes you to the next level. This is a concept that can be applied to any relationships in life. What benefits one often will benefit the other.
In nature this is called Mutualism – the way two organisms of different species exist in a relationship in which each individual benefits from the activity of the other. More on this thought here.
What’s is life without relationships. Lonely, cold and depressing and that too is not necessarily great for our own state of being nor is it conducive to our ability to continually progress and to reach our best potential.
