To fuel your passion, break out of your comfort zone💌
At the right time, people dream about being in the right place. And that’s the luck thing—sometimes you have to stand in lots of different positions or in the same place lots of different times in order to be in the moment.
Luck, you know, doesn’t just happen. Most of the time not. Anyway, as it arrives, luck happens to individuals who go looking for it and who are prepared for it. You never know who someone you encounter will be the one who opens the door to your next chance or someone who hears about you.
Human beings can encounter many circumstances in this amazing land where life is expected. There are moments when you’ve been bumping into incidents that would make you resilient, leaving you wicked otherwise. It’s a blessing that each of us has the right to select or determine what direction we’re going to follow to be in a position that we’ve been dreaming of for a very long time: a life where change and serenity are moving forward and it’s for all intents and purposes for each of us to conquer in a fight that we’re scared to compete for.
Six years ago, I was unsure who I would become. I was stuck with identifying who I was, knowing who I wanted to be, and chasing who I was going to be? I always have unanswered questions before I have the confidence to look for the answers and be courageous enough to let go of the comfort zone that hinders me from the person I wanted to be.
But I know that I am confident of the dreams I want to reach for, amid all the uncertainties that I experience. I am aware of the road I want to cross, and it is to be proud of the career I have chosen to undertake successfully, to become someone I would be proud of, and to be someone who would save lives and change the world, even in the little stuff.
It is not always easy to find and explore yourself. It may sound like an excessively self-centered goal to discover yourself, but it is really an unselfish process at the core of everything we do in life. We must first know who we are, what we admire, and in effect, what we have to give to be the most important individual in the world around us, the best wife, parent, etc. This personal journey is one that any person would profit from taking. It’s a process involving tearing down shedding layers that do not serve us in our lives and do not show who we really are. Nevertheless, it still needs a massive act of building up-recognizing who we want to be, and passionately going to fulfill our special destiny-whatever it might be. It is a matter of knowing our personal strengths but being open to our perceptions and vulnerable to them. It’s not anything to dread or resist, but more something to watch out for with interest and kindness along the way.
And if it is toxic, you must recognize all your shortcomings, insecurities, and society’s judgment. To step on and become someone you deserve to be, you have to fight all those hurdles.
Serendipitous events unfold and lead you to awaken your innate wisdom as you take responsibility for your life. At this stage, you must be able to venture out of your comfort zone and experience life with zeal and fervor.
Life throws lemons at you—well at least that’s what you suspect from where you’re standing. Sick and tired of being in a rut, you might be. Emotionally drained and lacking direction, feeling uninspired. Don’t despair, as you may just experience an inner shift. You may experience periods of confusion from time to time, which seem on the surface as if the world is sinking. Although you can’t put your finger on it altogether, something isn’t quite right, at least you know that part. Life appears more difficult and requires more effort than usual. It’s all just a chore. When things do not go according to plan, you feel emotional confusion at the slightest episode.
Life is not always smooth sailing, rest assured. In that statement, seeking sanctuary releases us from having to push against the forces of life. Like any journey, a goal or a plan typically foreshadows the intention of reaching one’s destination, although you may not anticipate the rough waters ahead. That is, to reach your final destination, you might have to sail your boat in new waters. The journey of life is filled with innumerable lessons that many fail to acknowledge when embroiled in their drama.
Remember, the level of personal growth you undertake is paramount to your response to life. In ideal situations, most individuals thrive, although this does not test one’s character. Your reaction to life’s uncertainties decides your degree of inner development, especially when the tides are against you. In your journey to venture out of your comfort zone, I encourage you to follow a similar quality. Know, simple is not where the fruit of your accomplishment lies. Do not sit on your laurels because it is easy. You must be able to take chances, major or small, and step in the direction of your dreams steadily. Also, I advised you to dream big and act big, to earn higher rewards in life.
Stepping out of your comfort zone helps you to stretch your personal constraints to create a rewarding life. I want you to know the accomplished individuals to whom you look up who moved beyond their comfort zone to achieve their current degree of mastery. To produce a new way of living, they smashed down several glass ceilings and equally opened the way for others to follow. You act as a signpost for those to pursue by breaking ground in your search, which is the welcoming part of going beyond your comfort zone. Yet you do not want to make it a relentless search, as tempting as it may be to break into your comfort zone. It becomes paramount to incorporate your experiences into your life as it is characterized by your learning and inner development, which becomes the focal point of pushing beyond your comfort level.
The human equivalent of the fuel that powers your car is Passion. Passion drives a lifetime of visions in a related manner. It is an energy stream that is driven by purposeful action to live an inspired life. Passion is your idea for your life focused on your fundamental beliefs, qualities, ability, passions, and gifts in more precise words. You can overcome any obstacle with it, solve any issue, and circumnavigate the endless challenges life throws your way. People often succumb to anger, frustration, disappointment without it and are continually caught up in seemingly insurmountable issues.
From experience, passion is often born. It’s born out of the act of trying new things and expanding your horizons. In other words, it’s not something that suddenly finds you while you sit at home watching TV on your couch. Instead, you have to proactively pursue something by venturing outside your comfort zone to gain the necessary experiences to trigger that “aha” moment that can forever alter the course of your life.
