This is Why Most People Fail...

I agree with this, if you want to be successful you should get out of your comfort zone
So on 2014 I wish everybody to go out of your comfort zones and be successful!

I definitely agree with your post but I'd like to add that it doesn't have to be hard to be outside your comfort zone - in fact, some of the biggest progress you can gain is from pushing through the easy things.

Maybe it's something like keeping your desk clean that could save you lots of time and frustration every day but you simply don't get it done. Or maybe it's something like not wanting to talk on the phone and offering less customer service because of it - these are not difficult to fix but they will require you to set a new standard for yourself and literally become a better person than you were before.

In fact, most problems that cause the most anxiety are the easiest to fix because all you have to do is work on the fundamentals. If you can't talk to your customers on the phone then start by calling your friends or your parents more often. Call a store and ask if they have a certain product. It sounds simple but if you can't talk to your customers I guarantee that you'll have the same fear of rejection that a first time business owner gets when he's developing marketing material for his project. And, to that point, you actually develop the skills you need to market your project as a part of the practicing process!

I needed a bit of motivation and I got it here... Thank you... I have been trying to make money online for some time now without much success... I will keep on going nonetheless...

Totally agree, you need to be out of your comfort zone and you need to be willing to fail to succeed. I would argue you even need to fail sometimes in order to succeed. I wrote a little blog post on it if anyone is interested: http://thathungrymind.blogspot.ca/20...d-to-fail.html

Great post as always Kim. I would have preferred "This Is How Most People Succeed" though. I was pushed up on stage once (under protest) - best thing to ever happen to me.

If you want to get uncomfortable to see results, you should try out Eric Worre's 90 day challenge.

Great advice. The toughest for me was deciding what to do first. Sometimes I feel like there are no many things to do. I am only one person...how on earth was I supposed to start a business all by myself? Then I realized that I just had to try and make it happen somehow.

Yes 100% true , i am fighting to get out of my comfort zone.developing a software , started online journal , just started so right now i am feeling the true meaning of your words

Totally irrelevant, but this is also applicable when you train in any sport.

Its true. The comfort zone is actually a disease. Once you get inside of it, you don't wanna get out of it. So the best thing is that you don't get too cozy with your comfort zone, or else its going to kick in your rear one day, and its going to hit hard.

Excellent. You nailed it. I would add that going out of one's comfort zone in fact expands it. And as Henry Calvin alluded to, just keep raising the bar and never stay comfortable. Most people are not cognizant of their own skills and underestimate their true potential. One must have a solid belief system, action and focus. The rest falls into place.

100% Correct....TAKE ACTION !
