Default Re: Comfort Zone

Thanks Dien,

This poem was so inspiring for me, that I have printed and put it up on my wall.

> Comfort Zone (Author Unknown) I use
> to have a Comfort Zone
> Where I knew I couldn't fail
> The same four walls of busy work
> Were really more like jail.

> I longed so much to do the things
> I'd never done before,
> But I stayed inside my Comfort Zone
> And paced the same old floor

> I said it didn't matter,
> That I wasn't doing much
> I said I didn't care for things
> Like diamonds, furs and such

> I claimed to be so busy
> With the things inside my zone,
> But deep inside I longed for
> Something special of my own.

> I couldn't let my life go by,
> Just watching others win.
> I held my breath and stepped outside
> And let the change begin.

> I took a step and with new strength
> I'd never felt before,
> I kissed my Comfort Zone "goodbye"
> And closed and locked the door.

> If you are in a Comfort Zone,
> Afraid to venture out,
> Remember that all winners were
> At one time filled with doubt.

> A step or two and words of praise,
> Can make your dreams come true.
> Greet your future with a smile,
> Success is there for you!
