François Chollet on Twitter: "In life, you need forcing functions. You never know what you're capable of until you have no choice but go and do it. Excessive comfort leads to unrealized potential."

  There are, of course, self directives that create motivation apart from any level of comfort. “Callings” are a useful example.

  You never know what will break you utterly, until you are crushed beneath pain & despair, with neither hope nor help in sight.
