“Minds, like bodies, will often fall into a pimpled, ill-conditioned state from mere excess of comfort.”
— Jeff Bezos

Simplified Meaning:
When we have too much ease and comfort, our minds can become lazy and unhealthy, just like our bodies can get pimples and feel bad if we eat too much junk food or laze around all day. Think about a student who never faces difficult challenges in school. They might not learn very well because everything is too easy for them. Similarly, if we don't push our brains to think and work hard sometimes, our minds can become weak and less sharp. Engaging in new activities, reading challenging books, or solving puzzles can keep our brains active and healthy. So, it's important to step out of our comfort zones to keep our minds strong and alert.
