I hear you, Marci. But I can tell you from 3 times of going though this… it will happen by itself. You only need to stick with your conviction and in a few years, they might tell you how glad they are you kept your course!

That’s right! Most people avoid risking anything. But when you never risk to try something new you will stick with the old forever.
Thank you, Michael 😊

Whether it’s a “push” or a “nudge”, it’s certainly a way to strengthen us. 👏

Yes, both ways! And if we are meant to step over a part of the limit line we will do it… either we do it or life will push us!

Erika, Jan, well said. I had a friend who was terrified of public speaking. What he did about still amazes me. He decided to teach an aerobics class. He said it was the best thing he ever did. Keith

That’s so cool! Probably everybody has something that limits them in a way that limits their lives. We know ourselves so well and we only need to find ways to trick ourselves and step over that stumble stone. When I am afraid to do something which I actually want to do then I tell someone that I will do it. My pride does the job that from that moment on there is no way back… lol

Erika. well done. I love the reference to “that stumble stone.” That is apt. Thanks, Keith

Looking closer into the own abyss may be scary but in fact, it only shows us ways to deal better with ourselves…

We have to go past our self-imposed boundaries to experience what we haven’t experienced and then we’ll want to experience more. Great quote and share!

We would never induce life-challenging situations. That’s why life sends them in order that we are chased out of comfort zones. A very good statement of Jan’s indeed!

I’m thankful to be chased out of my comfort zone a few years back and I’m still looking forward to breaking new ground. A very good statement, yes!

Same over here! Life has not become easier that way… rather the other way around… but a lot more fulfilling!

You were definitely thrown out of your comfort zone, Gary. Why ever this had to happen to you, but you had no other choice but growing from it. I only know the person you are today, and I feel blessed that we met!

I’m sorry Erika, I’m trying to find myself among all this and the jetsam and flotsam is unbelievable. And to top it all off yesterday the medical ‘system’ just started to play games and I was its football. If I thought I was being blocked before, this really scores a touchdown. It requires a post I think to give everyone an idea of what our ‘higher selves do’ for us to ‘see’ our hearts 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋
