Review of the book -Ready, Set ....Grow !!!

Chapter 17Reach Beyond Your Comfort Zone

Today's chapter is about leaving that your settled method of life that requires little effort and yields only barely acceptable skills. 


The space between where you are today and where you want to be could be named growth. It also can be called risk. What got you here will not take you one step further. There is a need for every individual to continually strive to be better than you were the other day, and to achieve that, you must be willing to leave that comfortable state of yours which could be limiting and learn more skills and be more as a person. Personal development is key to growth.

We shouldn't wait for someone to roll out the corporate rug for us. It is up to us to build our own road. Paths are personal things. Each is unique, just as unique as the person who travels it. Be your own mentor, discover your strength and focus on experiences.

In your comfort zone there is a sense of familiarity, security and certainty. When we step out of our comfort zone , we are taking a risk, opening ourselves up to the possibilities. Challenging yourself can help you perform at your peak. Trying new things can make you more creative. Embracing new challenges can help you age better.

But darling, don't push yourself to far.

To have more or become more, i will have to do new things.
