comfort zone

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.  


I read that quote and it excites me and scares me in an instant.  I know that the greatest moments in my life have been those where I stepped through the fear.  There is something very powerful about doing something that scares you that challenges you to the core and makes you question who you are.  We have this notion that who we are is fixed.  We may say "oh no I don't do that" or "no thats not my thing", says who?  This little piece of goodness can free you.  You are so much more than you allow yourself to be.  We place these limits on ourselves and then seal it in concrete.  We relate to our limitations as if there are real.  They arent real, they are fear hardened that's all.  And in an instant, can be freed. 
You can be free.  Life is so amazing, yet we live in the limits.  We play it safe.  You can be physically safe but don't be mentally safe.  Don't let yourself talk you out of trying new things.  Don't put a limit on what you can do or what you or good at.  Feel the fear and do it anyway. 

Today I am grateful for shadow boxing class I'm about to attend.  It scares me and pushes and makes me want to quit yet I'm gonna do it anyway.
