Break Out Of The Comfort Zone

by Geoffrey Faivre-Malloy

How many times have you checked your e-mail lately? How many times have you rearranged your desk? Perhaps you've decided to make a few phone calls to friends ou haven't talked to in a while?

Everyone has something called "The Comfort Zone." It's only human for us to do whatever we can to stay in The Comfort Zone. Whether that is cleaning up your office, checking your e-mail or an innumerable number of other things, The Comfort Zone will hold you back from achieving your true potential.

Look at it another way - every moment you spend doing those things that you're comfortable with could be another moment you spend honing the skills that will drive you to success.

So how do you identify The Comfort Zone? Easy - what task do you fear the most about your home based business? Now, ask yourself this question, "What do you do when you don't want to do this task?"

Write down the top three things you're likely to do instead of what you should be doing.

Now comes the hard part -- Breaking Out of The Comfort Zone.

Set aside some time in the day when you will only work on tasks that are out of your Comfort Zone. Schedule it -- make it a reality. When you're working on these tasks, do *not* work on anything else. Start with a short amount of time -- say, five minutes -- and then slowly increase it until you're doing an hour or more.

You'll find that the more you work on tasks outside of your Comfort Zone, the more comfortable you will become with them.

Before you know it you'll break out of the Comfort Zone and you'll be amazed at the fruit it will provide in your life!
