Comfort and change


My wonderful friend and consciousness coach, Marcel Dallende, inspired me a long time ago, to make a move out of my comfort zone, scary but sooo rewarding.I want to share this with you .

 Successful performers know that the most uncomfortable place in which to be is the “comfort zone”. Anthony Steward who in 1992 sailed around the world in a 5.8-meter open boat was asked to tell when he was the most afraid, and his answer was, “When I was on the island, because I was going nowhere”.

Comfort zones do not allow you to go anywhere. Instead they cause you to experience frustration, resentment, fear, anxiety, etc. The focus becomes inward and you begin to be a victim.

 The absence of risk is called: the comfort zone. The more you are in your comfort zone the less you are alive. We as human beings are in constant need of challenge. Failing to continuously set new targets puts an individual at risk to automatically get ruled again by the old patterns uploaded by the sub-conscious.



What positive challenges can you think of committing to?

It doesn’t need to be a big change. Less is more. For me particulary, small changes out of my comfort zone create longer lasting results that a major leap out of it. My 30 day smoothie challenge (below) was a small step, but a powerful one.

On a deep note...

I talk a lot about change. Its what I help others do as an NLP Results coach.

Its our nature to grow. Growth is never ending. No matter how wonderful your life may be, it can be better, you will want more. I do. This is not an ego thing of never being satisfied. Its from our deep knowing of our infinite ability to grow and change into anything we desire, anything we want to experience. As we change and grow in a positive direction, we change the lives of the people in our world. Its bigger than just me or just you.

 My positive change unconsciously gives others permission to do the same. Your positive change and growth unconsciously gives others permission to do the same.
