STEP OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE

STEP OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE


 

Last week I did two things outside of my comfort zone that were life-changing.




1. I accepted to be on a show where I spoke my mother tongue throughout.

It was not perfect but I gave hours of practice to it and did great.

My wife asked why I accepted and I told her it was intentional to challenge my comfort zone.



2. I accepted to do a 25 pushup challenge on camera and post on social media.

I am normally able to do about 15 comfortably but 25 was outside my comfort zone.

I couldn't do the entire 25 but I was very close.



Why am I sharing this with you?



When last did you do something outside of your comfort zone?

When last did you try something new?

Someone said, "In order to become someone you’ve never been, you’ve got to do things you’ve never done."

The only way to maximise your potential in life is to keep pushing your horizons; it's too keep challenging your limits; it's to reject status quo.

The worst regret a man can or will ever have is, after all, is said and done, he looks back at his life and wishes he had tried more things outside of his comfort zone.

Please don't live a life of regret. Don't just do things to remain status quo!

Strive to be all you were created and born to be.

You can do it and I believe in you.

So, are you committed to trying new things this week?

I believe in you.

Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
