It’s all in the wording. I think the point is to avoid momentum and autopilot. But challenging yourself and learning new things doesn’t need to mean unwelcome stress or discomfort.

I’m not sure that needs to be a bad thing. I think the takeaway is that there’s good stress and bad stress. That was my conclusion anyhow; a little stress releases cortisol which is a steroid, too much causes burnout.

Yup! I've also found what I eat is important.
Carbohydrates to be a source of brain fog as I get older. I've also found cutting them out to 0g/day seems to increase anxiety for me (studies have shown reducing it below a certain amount... 50g?... definitely increases cortisol, a stress hormone). So finding a good balance in the diet is key.

This is the type of thing that I hate about life. You are looked down by others for being content and your body also punishes you for being content.
