INEQUITY vs. INIQUITY
Inequity? That's all about unfairness. If someone gets a bigger slice of cake at a party, that's inequity. It's all about not getting your fair share.
But iniquity? That's when someone does something really bad, morally wrong even. That's when they steal the whole cake instead of just taking a big slice. Different ball game!
So we got fairness on one hand, morality on the other. Either way, keep it straight, folks. That's what's important!

RECIPROCAL vs. MUTUAL
The terms "reciprocal" and "mutual" often refer to shared, common or joint actions or feelings, but they differ subtly in how they are used.
"Reciprocal" refers to a relationship or arrangement where two or more parties give, do or feel the same things towards each other. For example, reciprocal love describes a relationship where love is felt and expressed by both parties towards each other.
On the other hand, "mutual" is used to describe shared common characteristics or feelings between individuals, but it doesn't necessarily suggest a return or exchange like reciprocal does.
In other words, all reciprocals are mutual and not all mutuals are reciprocal.

Get out of your comfort zone!
When you voluntarily face new situations, it allows you to gather new information and from that data, you evolve, you grow.
And we're not just talking metaphorically here. Science has made some astounding discoveries. When a human being propels themselves into a different scenario, new genes activate in the central nervous system. And what are these genes coding for? New proteins! And these aren't just any proteins; they serve as the fundamental units for building new structures - and we're talking about our brains here.
So, what's the takeaway? A good chunk of our potential, in the most tangible sense, remains untapped if we remain in our comfort zones. You have to vocalize, you have to act, you have to get out there to explore uncharted territories to essentially wake up this sleeping potential. If you avoid this, if you fall into stagnancy, you stay incomplete, thus unfulfilled and stressed.
So cut to the chase, dare more, stagnate less! Face the unknown! It's not just about survival, it's about unlocking parts of your brain that you didn't even know existed.
