In order to be successful you need to have courage. In order to have courage, you need to face your fears.
When is the last time you stepped out of your comfort zone and faced your fears?
Start today. Call that person you're afraid to call. Start the business you're afraid to start. You get the idea.
YES TYLER!! The comfort zone is the enemy of progress!
Well, I'd have more courage if I wasn't so afraid!
All kidding aside... excellent advise!
The biggest bag of courage that I have ever used - - - - was when I shaved my dome BALD - it took an awful lot of courage to get there - - - -but once I had that smooth dome - -- - -I was fine - - -
Its true that nothing is every really achieved without a little courage...
...sounds like a scene from 'the Wizard of Oz'
YES TYLER!! The comfort zone is the enemy of progress!
Good is always the enemy of Best...
Your post about courage reminded me about a valuable experience I had when I was 21 yrs old.
I was attending U.S. Army Airborne School in Ft. Benning, GA. We just finished our 4th jump and I was packing my chute. I looked up to watch the next pass from the C-130 and just as I looked up I saw two tangled jumpers. They did not glide down slowly. Their chutes were tangled and they fell very fast. They bounced about 15 feet after hitting the ground.
Well, in case you didn't know, to graduate jump school you have to jump 5 times. We had to jump again within about an hour and a half. It was tough. I learned something about myself that day. I carry it with me every day.
I've never in my everyday life experienced something that intense since then. I've never experienced stress like that again. Everything else seems pretty insignificant.
Also, as an aside, before attending airborne school I had never even been in an airplane.
