I have a friend who doesn’t realize how much he dislikes so many things—much of his life is spent avoiding things he doesn’t like, or trying to rush through things like exercise, or being annoyed by people who do things he doesn’t like.

We all have aversions to things, more than we probably realize. It’s not a problem to have aversions, but if we’re driven by the aversions, we’re locking ourselves into a limited life.
