So beautiful. I needed this today. Every time I lament that my journey is harder than the rest, I will remind myself that the skill needed to navigate this greater than that of others. I loved your example with the potholes and traffic. Classic @Amit Holey story telling!!

Very few organisations have a designed process to “seek” challenges . Armed Forces or space agencies are some of these. Other place you learn this is sports and art.

Most organisations are designed to avoid turbulence and ambiguity.

A subtle way here is to allow and appreciate failures. This is rare!

Agree with your point. The 'desire to not fail' overpowers the 'desire to learn' resulting in avoidance of risky opportunities.

Challenging markets develop better Leaders over un/ less challenging. Great analogy.
