It is not a secret that General Z often gets a “lazy”. From Tiktok directions like Quitting quiet smokingand The minimum of the twoAnd “Large Girl’s Jobs,” To the CEO of General Z who defended She works from her bedThe generation developed a reputation to apply the minimum voltage. Egyptian astronaut Sarah Sabri noticed some of the same customs among young workers.
“I see a lot of young people now – they want to walk on the easy way without working hard,” I told exclusively luck. “But the truth is that you have to make sacrifices. You have to put yourself in a lot of discomfort.”
Sabri knows what it means to tend to have discomfort. As the first Egyptian astronaut – and the first Arab and African woman in space – her career was formed through the early morning brutally, periods of complete isolation, and even the removal of digital toxins from social media to tightening her mental focus.
Until now after I made it, the millennium is still withdrawn 13 hours days and 3 jobs In addition to a doctorate in space engineering. She has a message to a generation of lovers of balance between work and life: success does not come to those who remain in their comfort area.
She said, “Especially the general G, whenever they start feeling uncomfortable, they stop,” she said. “We are the millennium generation. We know that there is nothing like The balance between work and life. My career is my life, my life is my career. I will not be in peace if I am not working hard. “
How can General Z improves sitting with discomfort
In fact, the smallest generation of workers reshape the world of work Forcing employers to rethink their flexible work policies Because many prefer to try to be their boss more than adhere to an old business owner. But Sabri says whether or not you are going on the company’s path, or that the course of entrepreneurship as it was, the advice of the primary space pioneer for those who seek to “break something”, is to rethink how to realize discomfort.
After all, it’s not as if she is already enjoying these morning stimuli 4:30 am. Instead, you describe it like a board: the more you hold the uncomfortable situation, the more you feel the benefits later. And Sabry even has some special astronauts training her jam that helps you sit with discomfort.
“You can make yourself excited about it,” said Co founder in the Egyptian Space Ambassador program, a researcher for the Humanspaceflight laboratory, which was funded by NASA, a founder of the Egyptian Space Ambassador program, and a researcher for the Humanspassflight laboratory that was funded to NASA.
“We have a lot of control of our minds, it is ridiculous that they do not teach us at school. A lot of training the astronaut that I had to do. Everything was related to switching these moments of tension with a peaceful place.”
Before flying on the new Shepard missile from Jeff Bezos on August 4, 2022, SABRY trained itself to feel comfortable because “when you are on a missile, you must have clarity.” She says anyone can do this, by telling their brains that this feeling of palm trees and panic is evidence of growing – so instead of resisting it, relying on it and using it as a sign that you are about to progress.
“So, you change the discomfort from negativity to positivity. And you know that since you feel uncomfortable and because you feel that you are getting resistance, this means that you are doing something great – and if what you do not do is large enough, you will not get much resistance, or you will not feel this annoyance very much.”
