Uncomfortability might come before the Reward
Through experiences of the past, it is becoming glaring that uncomfortability can come before the reward. You know that saying nothing comes easy in this life, well it is like they were referring to uncomfortability. I have come to understand that it is never a linear process when it comes to the growth of an individual. It can be exponential in some case but never straightforward. There is always that form of setback that keeps one in the state of questioning what they know or what they have been through. This difficulty could come in different ways that keeps one locked in a state of pessimism where they doubt if their efforts are making any form of heads
Notwithstanding the idea of uncomfortability, I have had my share uncomfortability before the reward comes along. It is happens a lot in chess for me especially when I used to study the game and be obsessed about it. I could spend hours playing or studying in preparation for a tournament where I end up underperforming. At such time, it becomes overwhelming for me to bear the uncomfortability that comes with playing poorly. For others or anybody else, it could administer in a different form or a different activity. Nonetheless, the feeling still remains the same.
In another sense, it could be when you are trying out something for the first time. I think the process of trying out new things for the first time has to be spoken about a lot because there is always more stories there to explore. Like for example, the harsh push backs you get when it is not working out for you. A good example is learning to ride a bicycle. If you think about it thoughtfully, you will remember it was a bit challenging at the beginning when you were struggling to place your feet on the pedals. At the same time, it is only those who pull through the early difficulties that get to learn how to actually ride a bicycle. Take the setbacks as a stepping stone to the excellence you seek. It is difficult and challenging, that is certain but what lies ahead is the reward.
As you move further, you begin to understand why they say you have to pass through the funnel to get what you want. It is not easy because if it was, everybody will do it. It takes the strongest of wills, at least in the voice Thanos. While what happens most times is that people give up way to early. With the slightest form of setback, we give up and move on without withstanding the storm to see how strong we might have been. Even if I talk about it, I get caught up in the notion of wanting to give up especially at the hardship I encounter but overtime I have come to realize that there is no field or activity without its difficulty so if I decide to run from one to another, it is only a matter of time before I get tired of running.
You cannot run from every difficulty, for in the end you have to settle on one. I remember a line from a movie where the statement: to live is to suffer was made. You just have to choose your suffering. What is worth your energy and what is not? This is what will sets you apart.

Hello everyone I hope you are all good and well today in this post is some of the evidence to prove my case
If you didn't know I've been getting downvoted for a long time on Hive
They have been trying to bully me with downvotes and words but it doesn't affect me I've been online for over 25 years
So I've dealt with people like this before it's nothing new
But what they are doing is bad Very badi joined steemit like everyone else thinking it offers freedom but I must say steemit offered much more freedom than Hive does
Everyone already knows I only post my own original content I have no need to steal anything from anyone
I've been labelled a lot of things on Hive 😂 by the biggest farmers scammers and downvoters
Actions speak louder than any words do especially when them words are coming from a compolsive liars
I will keep updating this post when I get time

I love this, and it's something I can very well relate with, talking of uncomfortable feelings. It reminded me of those times I was ill, bedridden and had to undergo several surgeries. It was as if I wouldn't get better and I will have to keep undergoing surgeries. But then, those times made me stronger, and thinking back now, I can say that our struggling and uncomfortable times or moments aren't useless, they are a part of the journey to being a better person in life.
At the end of the day, struggle is what gives value to our achievements.
Thanks a lot for sharing such a deep, thoughtful, and inspiring piece, sir.
❤️❤️❤️
I could remember some years ago when I feel like the world is a bucket filled with honey, and you just have to go out, take yours and go home. Never did I know that the world feels hindeous because of the violent and suffering in it,now I know that for every success there are scares and stories to tell for the young..
Thank you sir, for sharing sure an encouraging and mind-shaping words.
When you give example about uncomfortability at first when someone is trying to learn how to ride a bicycle for the first time, I just remember myself that moment was so hard I even wanted to give up but with time I learned.
the harder the way, the bigger the reward
There's always a suffering, a commitment, a debt to pay and burden to carry, a sacrifice to make and a pain to bear.. this is true state of reality no matter how sad it seems.
@samostically, I'm refunding 4.041 HIVE and 0.000 HBD, because there are no comments to reward.
