To sit in a rut is to be in a zone of comfort and to indulge in the illusion of safety. But I think that a person has only 2 ways or to develop or degrade. Sometimes, in order to feel the taste of life and make changes to it, you need to leave the comfort zone. For many, this is hard.
All this is due to a limited view of life.
"We are what we think of ourselves"
Therefore, you need to change your mind, do not be afraid of change and smile at change. A positive view very much changes any situation. I appreciate those people who in any situation find positive aspects and are not afraid of change.

God made the bees. The bees made the honey. God made you and gave you talents. (Matthew 25:15-25) Are you doubling those talents, or just burying them?!

Gold words. God gave people the talent and willpower to develop their talents. But many traded a chance to develop into an imaginary comfort in the comfort zone. The main thing is to realize this and get out of the rut.
Thank you for your motivating message.
