Step Into the Unknown

The above picture is so very true. Some of the greatest things I’ve done in my life have come from me stepping out of my comfort zone.  I grew up thinking my comfort zone was a good place, that I should hide in it and protect myself from the world.

I couldn’t have been more wrong.  Life is meant to be lived outside  the comfort zone, continually doing things that scare us, that make us question, make us doubt.  Because those are the things that build our character, that mold us into better, stronger people.

Our comfort zone is a lie.  It’s not comfort, it’s complacency.  I think we developed the term comfort zone to make ourselves feel better about staying in it.  But it drags us down, down to our knees and keeps us there, and we never experience true life when we stay stuck in it.

So what is it you are needing to step out into?  What do you think is holding you back from stepping out of your comfort zone?
