Hi guys,today i want to talk about leaving our comfort zones
So before i start,i would like to define what exactly a comfort zone is
A comfort zone is definitely not the toilet,lol...It is a zone where you are too relaxed and at peace to the extent that it hinders your progress.
A comfort zone is just that position you're in that makes you too lazy to level up,and to be honest,the comfort zone as the name implies is a very comfortable place.It is peaceful and without stress
Stepping out of your comfort zone means that you are ready for a little bit of challenge and you're ready for the next level.
Contentment is good but one should always strive to beat the record of who he or she was the previous day.
The comfort zone is very boring,dogmatic and static.In actual fact,stepping out of one's comfort zone has to do with virtually everything in life.
If you're lying on your bed and your alarm wakes you because you have someplace important to be,getting out of bed is actually stepping out of a comfort zone.
Do not misunderstand,we should rest as much as possible but there comes a time when change must occur .
As a business, stepping out the comfort zone might mean to start being serious with branding,marketing,customer relations , entering new markets etc
It can also mean taking a risk in a business,without risk there is no progress,you can decide to stay in one position or to grow,if your decision is to grow,you must be able to take risk and taking that risk is what is called stepping out of one's comfort zone.
Stepping out of your daily routing of "peace" to hit the gym is stepping out of your comfort zone,dieting is also stepping out of one's comfort zone,what about starting a business?what about building a home etc

Humans have lots of wants and most of them can only become ours when and only when we step out of our comfort zone.
For an instrumentalist,stepping out of comfort zone might mean to start rehearsing for 1 hour per day,there are numerous examples we could go on and on.
The conclusion is that stepping out of one's comfort zone is like planting a seed because there will always be an harvest.
A good example is the life of an eagle, an old eagle with old wings,blunt beak and weak body will leave it's comfort zone of "peace and quiet" and will start using it's beak to remove the hairs of it's body.

One by one until the eagle sheds them all,the process is always very painful and bloody,it is definitely not a bed of roses,during this period the eagle becomes very ugly and wounded but by the time the wounds heal and it grows new wings,it renews it's strength
That is why it is said in the bible that "Ye shall renew your strength and fly like eagles..."
The scientist who invented the light bulb;Thomas Edison,he failed 99 times and got it the 100th time,he refused to slip back into his comfort zone,wind up and say "Well,it ain't working" he continued,didn't return to his comfort zone and he finally achieved success.
Comfort zone is a situation where one feels safe or at ease E.g
"the trip is an attempt to take the students out of their comfort zone"
A settled method of working that requires little effort and yields only barely acceptable results.
"if you stay within your comfort zone you will never improve"
Thank you so so so much for reading this.
Love xoxo💗
