In general we all tend to have a "pleasure seeking" mindset. While we know that all growth happens during adversity or being out of our comfort zones, we prefer to not have adverse time or to step out of our comfort zone. We are wired for pleasure. Draw your consciousness to this attitude. And ask yourself what would happen if instead of seeking pleasure, you sought growth?
Doing so will make you approach every difficult time/ disappointment/ adversity that you face as an opportunity to grow - to grow stronger, to learn to deal with difficult times, to increase your capacity to tolerate inconveniences.
You would no longer wish life to be any different from what it is. But would learn to flow with it, growing every step of the way. You will learn to embrace life.
When times are good, you can be present and enjoy the moments and when times are bad, you can learn to accept the situation and see what's the learning and growth opportunity for you there. So you are either enjoying( when life treats you well ), learning and growing ( when life is throwing challenges at you ). Of course you don't need to run after challenges just so you can grow😁, just learn to receive every situation in your life with grace and equanimity🙂🙏
