The Secret Holding You Back: Why People Choose Pain Over Personal Growth

Choosing to live in pain rather than engaging in internal work for freedom can stem from various complex factors deeply rooted in human psychology and behavior.

While the reasons are multifaceted and unique to each individual, several overarching aspects contribute to this tendency.

The familiarity of pain or discomfort can sometimes feel more manageable or predictable than the uncertainty of change.

Humans tend to gravitate towards what they know, even if it causes suffering, because the unknown can evoke fear and apprehension.

The prospect of delving into internal work involves confronting deep-seated emotions, traumas, or belief systems that might be daunting or unsettling.

Consequently, staying in a painful but familiar state seems less daunting than the unpredictability of what lies beyond it.
