Here is a photo of 73-year old Vicki stepping out of her comfort zone, learning to play the guitar.
Many of us seem petrified about doing something differently: changing our personality style, testing new ways to approach others, learning a new skill.
What will people think prevents us from having fun with new people, new adventures.
Stepping out with a new attitude brings more zest to living:
- If we take a risk to overcome our fears and our failures we grow emotionally, intellectually and spiritually.
- Those who get out of their comfort zone and try something different never get bored.
- Don’t be afraid to fail. The most certain way to success is to try one more time.
- Don’t be afraid to struggle. The greatest weakness is giving up; the greatest strength is persistence.
- Always doing our best is the closest we will come to perfect.
- Enhancement is about doing something fresh, imaginative and creative.
- The more we endeavor, train, venture and stretch, the more comfortable we become.
- When we keep practicing new approaches we become better and better at doing something that was once new. We change from being fearful to being strong, bold and courageous.
