Some were forced into discomfort through no choice of their own - a life-altering illness, a business fiasco - while others signed up for it because they had goals they were determined to achieve. Becoming comfortable with discomfort won’t just make us more resilient and more successful, however we define success. It will also make us happier. 2017.
