“You never change your life until you step out of your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.”
― Roy T. Bennett

Growth can be uncomfortable but it makes you unstoppable. It can leave you (metaphorically) battered and bruised but you'll come out of it so much stronger. But you need to remember, in order to grow, the wounds need to heal. You need to give yourself time to reflect and recharge. It's all about balance.
