Put yourself in the way of pain.

<p>This statement has been understood since the beginning of human life on earth. The early men had to go through struggle to get everything they needed&mdash;not even what they wanted.</p> <p>For them to be safe, to get food, to find mate, they had to be tough against harsh conditions of nature. If not, theirs was done and that&#39;s it.</p> <p>It was natural selection&mdash;the weak are eliminated and only those strong enough could continue. It was that hard and that was the drive behind the majority of their actions and discoveries.</p> <p>The conditions improved over time and we got to a time where we have everything easy and at our disposal and our drive to do some things or act in some way has also reduced or become unfound.</p> <p>I don&#39;t have to chase after my food again, I don&#39;t have to run away from predators and I don&#39;t have to move large boulders to get access to my shelter (if one of those early men were to be brought to the present time, he&#39;d be like &quot;ahhh, finally some sanity!&quot;).</p> <p>This change is all good until the disadvantages of our present condition set in. We got weaker and became really lazy&mdash;physically and mentally. We now feel entitled to good things even when we have done nothing to deserve it and have become really selfish.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@togunhayatudeen/put-yourself-in-the-way-of-pain-33edd331a398">Click Here</a></p>
