Comfort Zone

Extending oneself is rarely comfortable and hardly safe. Yet the opportunities and possibilities that occupy the space just outside your comfort zone are worth the risk. The comfort zone comes with guarantees. Guaranteed familiarity may feel comfortable and safe but the consequence of that guarantee is that things are not going to change. If you are not happy with where you are or the results you are getting from your efforts, change is needed. It is said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Change is easier to face when you realize that the only thing that is absolutely guaranteed in life is change. In fact, a lot of suffering is brought on when we do not accept change. Embrace change, go outside your comfort zone. Take a chance and invest in a better future.

 “Proceed and be bold.” - Samuel Mockbee (1944 - 2001)
