#376 The Misery of Uncertainty

Many of us have parts of our lives where we want to grow and progress, things we want to do that we haven’t done before, and yet, we hesitate and don’t move forward because it can be so uncomfortable to do something new, to step into change. I call this the certainty of misery. We’re not happy with where we are, but at least it’s comfortable, we’re certain how our life will be from day to day. If we can courage up and instead learn to step into the misery of uncertainty, we can create in our lives something that matches, and maybe even exceeds, what we dream of.
