Fact: Your Dream Life Will Never Be Born Out of Complacency
Complacency is the destroyer of dreams.
When you’re complacent, you suck the joy, purpose, meaning, and fulfillment out of life.
Complacency is tricky; it sneaks up on you before you know it.

You’re dedicated, consistent, and give it all you have.

Novelty and Challenge
- Novelty breaks you out of autopilot.
- Challenge breaks you out of your comfort zone.
Now look at your life and your routines; where can you incorporate novelty and challenge?
