Pushing Past Your Comfort Zone By: Priscilla Williams

By
As a women’s life and purpose coach, I have seen firsthand one of the most damaging things you
can do in life. That devastating thing is staying in your comfort zone. I have seen so many women get comfortable in their career, business, relationships, and life in general. This can really be harmful to your growth and your stability. I have been a victim of complacency myself, and had to push past my own comfort zone. This can really be a scary thing, to step outside of the box and live the life you were created to live. I want to share with you 4 reasons you should push past your comfort zone and live out loud.

 1. Feel the fear and do it anyway. This is really important, because if you are not afraid then your goals are not big enough. Everyone is afraid to move forward into something bold and powerful, but the strategy is not letting fear stop you no matter what. Feel the fear and do it afraid.

 2.You will inspire others. Do you know that when you give yourself permission to play big in the world you give others permission to do the same? I know when I see others making bold moves, it inspires me to step my game up and show bigger in the world.

 3.You will have no regrets. You never want to be in place where you wish you could have done some things different because of fear. If you don’t step up and step out, then you limit your chances of reaching your ultimate goal. Don’t wish you would have, when you can.

 4, You will live in your truth. Pushing past your fears will help you walk in your true authentic life. The life you really want for yourself. You know you want to make more money, have better relationships, and experience the fullest of the creator. Knowing this is your truth, you have to own it and walk in it no matter what. Letting fear hold you back will make you live beneath who you really are. It’s your time to be YOU!

 Ask yourself, when was the last time you wanted to try something new but shied away? Next time you feel like that do it anyway. You deserve to live life to the fullest, and find lasting success and happiness. Pushing past your comfort zone helps you find fulfillment, excitement in meaning in your life. I know firsthand what taking a risk will do for you. I never want to live my life with any regrets, because I was scared to step up. Know that you are worth every risk and every great thing you desire. If you want to see your goals fulfilled, be willing to let go of anything holding you back including your fears.
