Out of Your Comfort Zone? You Are on the Right Path
We are all creatures of habit. We like to do things that produce a degree of certainty in the results, even when they may not serve us best. At the same time, we want better results but resist anything new, so we recoil back into what is safe and comfortable.
The paradox is, change is the only constant. To grow and evolve, we must change and stretch beyond our comfort zone.
Consider this: If you are comfortable with the activities you engage in, then you are simply doing what you've already been doing, which will produce the same results as before. However, if you are willing to do the things that make you uncomfortable -- a new activity, strategy, or developing a new skill -- then you will create new results.
The lesson? If it's uncomfortable, it's probably the right thing to do and the quickest path to greater success. So, get comfortable with being uncomfortable.
