How much do you fight against your natural inclinations (see details)?

A question that has vexed me for a few years now is whether I would be happier if I fought against my nature a little bit, or if I should just submit to it.

This question is not so much about urges with obvious physical consequences (e.g. I fight my craving for sugary or fatty food because I know it’s unhealthy).

My example is that I’m a huge homebody. I am much happier at the prospect of a weekend devoid of plans than one that includes a lot of going out and socializing.

I constantly wonder though if I should fight this a little bit. I’m not making interesting memories sitting at home playing video games or drawing. I always end up feeling so boring when I look back on my time.

Do you fight your nature much? Does doing so improve your life or cause anxiety?
