Your comfort zone. It’s a very comfortable place. I think I should leave it behind some day or another though. We need to step out of our comfort zones, into a place where we know is going to help us grow. That’s always inspiring to hear. So, why not do it? Because it sucks.

I’ve found it’s extremely easy to just find a place where things are working okay, where I don’t have to stick my head into new situations. In some ways it could be nice to have things we want come to you. But things that we want are usually the things that are hard to get. A filmmaker can never expect to film in France without leaving America. A guitarist can’t perform a shredding solo without picking up a guitar. These things are obvious. But when it comes to leaving behind what we consider to be comfortable, for instance having only one day of work per week and wondering why you are so poor, I think it should too, be obvious.

Even though its easy and sometimes fun to be a hermit at home and reject all the opportunities around you, it can mean you’re never experience what you may want. And maybe what I want is still unknown to me, and the only way to find it is to go out of my comfort zone…

SO, note to self. I should at some point, seriously consider going out of my way to experience something new, and instead of trying to get out of it, get something out of it!
