RE: A Short Insight on Dealing With Regret
Certainly it is important to learn from mistakes, at best that's why you shouldn't repeat them. In return, it may be right to reflect on the matter and to clarify the cause. However, the claim to grow ever further and beyond oneself may well mean to be a mistake in oneself, as well as to orient oneself constantly towards comfort. Less is more, and some uncomfortable things eventually generate more inner satisfaction.
Couldn't agree more with this sentiment. Although we should strive towards growth, we shouldn't allow it to become "our comfort" so to speak. It's important that we continuously test and stretch our boundaries and that which makes us comfortable so we don't fall stagnate.
Stagnation could also be understood as a resting phase, such as the abandonment of fields in agriculture, for example, so that important internal nutrients can form, which can then continue in a next round of planting or be transferred to the subject of self-development on recuperated soil.
I've actually never thought of it like that.. very interesting insight, really appreciate you bringing it into my perspective : )
