7 Tips for Stepping Out of Your Comfort Zone: Right Now.

If you really stop and think about it, your Comfort Zone probably isn’t all that comfortable. If you’re living inside of a box, stuffing down your feelings, or putting your dreams on the back burner out of fear, it probably doesn’t feel very good. 
So many people I see in my workshops feel they have nothing original to say or do. They have a business idea, or a piece of art they’ve created, or a song they’ve written — the list goes on and on — and they think it’s not “enough” to put out into the Universe because somebody else has already done it. Just as no two snowflakes are alike, no one else is exactly quite like you. No one else can do what you do or say what you say in the way like you. Two people can write a book on the same topic and they are completely different books. For example, literally millions of books have been written throughout time. They are different because each person who wrote them is different.
What is it you dream of doing? What vision have you put on-hold while you remain in your so-called Comfort Zone? 

1. Value your unique gift. The fact is you have a light to shine that no one else has.
   
2. Accept that making mistakes is not only human, it’s a form of learning.
   
3. Recognize that it’s not about YOU. Somewhere, someone is waiting for exactly what you have to offer. The world needs your light.
   
4. Focus on one small piece of your dream and take a baby step. Don’t allow yourself to be overwhelmed. Baby steps do add up.
   
5. Acknowledge your progress along the way. You don’t have to wait until you get to the top of a mountain to enjoy the view.
   
6. Pay attention to your heart. If a dream is in your heart, sooner or later you’re going to have to deal with it.
   
7. Stop waiting for conditions to be perfect. They never will be. Fortunately, they don’t need to be.

There are things for you to do, but you won’t do them hiding out in your Comfort Zone. Step into the light. Be the best You, you can be. No one else does it better!
