A Warrior constantly challenges himself (or herself) to do more, be more than they currently are. Therefore they should never be satisfied with the status quo. To be comfortable is to be complacent and complacency is the antithesis of the Path.
Understand, I don't equate acceptance with complacency - they're different, but it is required of a Warrior to live life with intent and not the intent to be comfortable. I also don't equate stillness with complacency. As you point out, sometimes stillness in both mind and spirit are required to reach into the Nagual.
