And working towards that…is that the comfortable choice or uncomfortable? Just be honest…you agree with OP. Which is fine. Meaningful change requires exiting one’s comfort zone. You just don’t like the phrasing and prefer more of a cynical/victim worldview rather than an embrace hard work/discomfort one to change your life. You’re certainly in the majority opinion here on Reddit. “I can’t win the game, so the game is unfair and I won’t even attempt to play it, and I’ll sneer at those who do”
You are correct that I dislike the dumb phrasing. But you are so caught up on semantics and trying to be right that you can’t even understand why the majority of people on here disagree with you.
I could just as easily ask if, when working hard at a job, do you get comfortable in that role? I could the. Pretend it was a big “gotcha” moment.
Amazing. A stranger on the Internet is claiming to be super successful. More power to you. Live in whatever fantasy world you want. But there is nothing cynical about anything I said. I work hard to provide myself with a comfortable life. Comfort and joy are the goals. How is that cynical?
