How Comfort Zones Trap You 😵

If you drop a rat into a jar of food, it would eat freely, sleep when it's full, and do the same thing day after day. Now at first, the jar would be so full it could reach the top easily and leave whenever it wanted. But the more it eats, the emptier the jar gets, slowly pulling the rat away from the exit without it even noticing.

And even though it's comfortable, it's slowly trapping itself inside. And this is the same for human comforts. The more you sink into your comfort zone, the harder it is to escape until you're in so deep that doing anything else feels almost impossible.
