There was a nice chapter about it (if I remember correctly) in "Mastery" by George Leonard, saying that it's natural tendency of any organism, be it a single body or whole society, to maintain the status quo. Any attempt to change at first will be met with resistance. It's an instinct of self protection, trying to keep you from getting hurt. Unfortunately it will also keep your from growing. The answer, as you said, it to keep pushing and eventually you will get to the next level. Then the cycle will repeat ;) Oh, and I recommend this book ("Mastery"). It's a very balanced approach to learning and development, written by an aikido master. Hmh... aikido... I guess you may know about this one then ;) Jake — good advice.
