Get Comfortable with being Uncomfortable

Listen here!

This TED talk hits home for me. The creation of my blog, sharing my inner thoughts, and poetry is a massive step outside of my comfort zone. My initial thoughts intimidated me enough to second guess everything: 

1. What if people judge me?

2. What if my writing isn’t good enough?

3. What if I offend someone by sharing my truths?

4. What if people don’t support me?

5. I have no idea how to create a website, let alone a blog!

The list went on. My brain was on a deficit overload instead of thinking about all of the things that could go great. It’s all about a growth mindset! 

I am learning and building bridges as I go. I am soo proud of myself. I’ve sat on this idea for over 15 years and spent a lot of time encouraging those around me to fulfill their purpose but neglected to follow my own words. It wasn’t until an opportunity fell through this past year, that I was reminded to put my creative energy into myself and take the first steps to just start my project.

Although it is a work in progress, I am still heading in the right direction. I’m trusting my journey, finding my niche, and stepping out of my comfort zone one post at a time. 

Have you stepped out of your comfort zone lately?

Peace,
