Mindset Mondays: Comfort Zone
Mindset Mondays provide you with the motivation to mentally prepare you for the week ahead. This week we talk about how the “Comfort Zone” is keeping you from something.
Neale Donald Walsh said “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone” and I could not agree more. We have these visions for the things we want out of life. For too many people they stop at just visions and never turn into reality.
It is hard to chase your dreams. If you chase those dreams and the chase leads you to an area of unfamiliarity and discomfort, it is time to celebrate. When you find yourself pushing past the things you are comfortable doing then you will find your success is near.
Success does not walk into your house sit on your lap and give itself to you. Success likes to be chased. Success likes it when you go after it with a vengeance. Success knows that if it sits outside people’s comfort zone people will not even bother with it.
You are different though. You have a chance to get success and you cannot stop thinking about it. You can only catch it if you are willing to stretch for it like a rebound just outside of your area. Like a loose ball that appears to be just outside of your reach. Success is waiting for you to run outside of your comfort zone and tackle it!
This week do something that pushes you past your comfort zone. Find a player that is better than you and guard them this week. Find a drill that is very difficult and start doing it. Ask the people around you to challenge you in a new way this week. Do something increasingly difficult!
These new challenges will bring you out of your comfort zone and into a success haven. Are you willing to go outside your “Comfort Zone”?
