These are some notes I have about complacency and its opposite:
Complacency: definitely a thing if you think or feel that you don't need to grow anymore. Actually, knowing how to grow may be beyond you, and growth is something you can't completely engineer. (You have to leave plants alone -- by their very natures they grow). The danger comes when you resist growth.
Be concerned about you being complacent.
Opposite of complacency: passion. We must love God with all of our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths. If you don't do the thing that you know is for you to do, for you it is sin.
We need to grow in love of God. From time to time we are anti-tempted to, and if we choose to "give in", we love God more. These moments are often undramatic.
