In this "Monday mindset'' episode, I am sharing a message from a recent post I shared on social media. It hit home for so many people, myself included.  Our comfort zone is a place so many of us stay in even though it feels so uncomfortable.  Our soul is begging us to move, shift and sometimes even run because we know we are meant for something more. Yet we are using our comfort zone as a benchmark and not moving because everything feels foreign and new.  Our comfort zone can never be a benchmark because everything outside of this space will feel new.  Instead we need to embrace that all growth will feel different until we show up for it consistently and once we do that, then it is time to grow again. 

In today’s episode we discuss:
1) Every emotion you experience will be different outside of your comfort zone. When you are not used to being confident, then confidence feels like arrogance.  When you are used to being passive, being assertive feels like you're being aggressive.

2) If you aren’t used to prioritizing your own self care needs or respecting your boundaries, then as soon as you try to do this it will feel selfish.

3) This will also hit home if you are continuously comparing yourself to someone else and the success they are having in their own business or life.  Everytime you tell yourself that “it’s easy for them because x,y,z,” then you completely negate your own ability and you have to be honest with yourself. Instead of judging them, hire them or ask them what they did to create those results. Don’t judge someone else’s results if you are not willing to do the work to get there.  Your comfort zone is lying to you and you’re choosing to buy it.
