The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.

  • -- M. Scott Peck 斯科特·派克先生

事实上,我们最美好的时刻最有可能发生在我们感到非常不舒服、不开心或不满足的时候。因为只有在这样的时刻,由我们的不适所推动,我们才有可能走出我们的常规,开始寻找不同的方式或更真实的答案。
