Often, staying true to yourself takes a lot more effort than abandoning your truth for the sake of ease. 
Comfort is only the illusion of having what you want. It masquerades as success. It lures you into a false sense of complacency.
I talk about this balance a lot; of finding that sweet spot between contentment and truly enjoying where you're at, and pushing yourself, whether that's out of your comfort zone or into physical discomfort. It's important to walk this line.
