We are kept from our goal not by obstacles but by a clear path to a lesser goal.
Robert Brault
The pursuit of our most ambitious goals is not hindered by their difficulty, but rather by the attractive alternative of comfort and familiarity. Our jobs may provide a comfortable existence, making it challenging to leave and embark on a new, uncertain journey.
The internal struggle between staying put and taking a chance can often lead us to choose the easier path. The real challenge in achieving our dreams lies in overcoming the pull of a comfortable alternative, not the difficulty of the goal itself.
