We all love our comfort zones.
We all have our favourite clothes, our favourite friends, our favourite foods etc.
We make our favourite dishes because we know the hands that made it, how it was prepared and we knew it was a safe dish.
We wear the same clothes because they are comfortable and familiar. They may not be in fashion any more but for some reason they feel good on.
Our friends make us feel safe and secure, and we are content to stick with them, shying away from the risks required to form new friendships.
But the facts are that most of what we want and look for that is meaningful and significant is just beyond the edge of our comfort zone. If we never push ourselves further than we think we can go, we will never get out of our comfort zone, and achieve what we really think is possible.
You have to jump “all in” to your health and fitness programme. You can’t go half-hearted with your exercises programme, training 4 times one week and once the next for example, you need to be giving it everything you have, this is when great success happens.
You can’t eat good food now and again and expect to be in shape and have an abundance of energy. Going “all in” with your nutritional programme means getting amazing results, but you have to leave your comfort zone each day until you get used to what it feels like to “eat clean”.
It’s vital we all reach, stretch and expand from where we are now, if we want to keep on achieving more we need to get off the sidelines and start playing the game. Immersing ourselves in action is the one thing we can do immediately!
