Ep. 56 - Courage Comes Before Confidence - Here’s How to Take the First Step
The pain of staying the same has to be greater than the pain of change. Where are you experiencing pain right now? How much focus is that pain taking out of your each and every day? Expanding our comfort zones is the road to personal growth. And by withstanding discomfort and persisting anyway we learn things about ourselves and discover things within ourselves that we didn't know were available to us. When we remain in our comfort zone we become unaware of our possibilities and our ability to achieve our dreams.
Expanding our comfort zone can look very different depending on the pain we're experiencing. When did you last expand your comfort zone? What can you be doing differently to be moving forward and not be living a life dictated by fear or discomfort that often arises from staying in your comfort zone for too long?
You'll discover:
- The neuroscience behind expanding our comfort zone and why change is hard
- Why finding an emotion that gives us fire can get us moving in the right direction
- Why most of us think it’s just ‘life’ and don't recognise subdued discomfort as a comfort zone / growth opportunity
