You Are Only Confined By The Walls You Build Yourself

                                               "To move to a new level in your life, 
                                      you must break through your comfort zone 
                                         and do things that are not comfortable."
                                                                - T. Harv Eker




  

People have a tendency to always think that if they have to change something in their life, it is going to get worse than what they already have.

This is one big reason that we remain where we are. We know what we have and we often don't believe that we will get something better, if we change or try something new.

This is why a lot of people will remain in dysfunctional relationships that they have outgrown years ago. Or they stay at job that bores them to death and won't allow them to grow or learn something new. Also people don't dare to move to another city because they are afraid of leaving the safety of friends and family behind. Eventually they will get stuck in their comfort zone.

If we continue like this our comfort zone will shrink and shrink until we will feel like we are wearing chains or maybe feeling like a caged bird. I believe that a lot of people actually would like to change and to do something more challenging, if they could see what the future will hold for them. But that is not possible. We have to take a leap of faith and not allow fear of the unknown to stop us.

We settle where we are and later in life we will have to deal with regrets for not trying. Often people will become angry and bitter for letting life just slip on by without doing anything about it.

Dare to venture out of your comfort zone. Start by doing something that scares you and that you haven't done before.

One small little step today and then the next day and the next day... will eventually lead to big changes, excitement and wonderful growth. But you must take the first step and also be willing to feel uncomfortable for a while until you learn and and grow.


A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there.
