I have a feeling you know what I am going to say.
I have read this, and heard this. I have also experienced it, and I know you have too.
There is a place where our growth occurs; where that shift or achievement or transition or dream occurs. It is that place just beyond our comfort zone. It generally isn’t too far out there. If we go way, way past our comfort zone, we often feel threatened, afraid, and disoriented. That generally isn’t useful. Find that place just outside your comfort zone, where you are clearly uncomfortable, but you have at least some idea of what to do, and you can integrate what you learn into what you currently know, That is where growth occurs. It goes without saying that we avoid this like the plague. But for those of us who have a dream or something we are pursuing…that is where we mine for gold.
