doing hard things reduce the speed of physically and mentally aging by reducing the momentum-growth of entropy in your body
[[Sam Altman - How to Be Successful|Sam Altman]] says that winning require an incredible level of discomfort
discomfort is when you went beyond the threshold of hardness
say you go to the gym for the first time in your life, the first time will be very uncomfortable "what should i do, what do people think of me, et.c"
expect it
by expecting it we can just reduce this level of discomfort, you know it's something new so you can expect discomfort coming
second time will be 2x easier
third will be 3x easier
then doing consistently enough and it becomes a habit, it becomes natural, it's who you are, it's like brushing your teeth or sleeping
when was the last time you felt uncomfortable?
was it useful?
what did you learn?
should you try again?
