Love to see it fren!
Yeah, the idea is to learn to embrace a little discomfort and even pain. Growing and improving can be uncomfortable. If we learn to embrace the discomfort as a part of growth, we'll be constantly improving.
I'm on this journey myself. Not a guru, not an expert, not a success story, just a regular guy looking to make small improvements every day.
I guess I am on the same journey :)
In terms of work, I like to discover new challenges as well. Got a boss who let me try out stuff and thus let me grow.
I'm convinced you'll succeed as you already got the right mindset! 🙌
