Your Comfort Zone

My Food2Live4 partner Jennifer posted a great quote in our cleanse group this morning.  "A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there."  Unknown.

Love that!  Your comfort zone is just that:  comfortable.  There's no adventure, no excitement, no growth - you may choose to stay there out of boredom and fear or lack of confidence.

There's another great quote I love.  "The journey of a thousand miles starts with one step."  As a health coach, I help people take the initial small steps towards reaching their larger goals towards better health - in all aspects of their lives.  

Is your goal to eat better?  Choose an apple over chips.
Is your goal to reduce clutter?  Take 10 minutes (set a timer) and clean out a drawer.
Is your goal to have more spirituality?  Set a timer for 5 minutes and sit in quiet and meditate.

Starting my health coaching business has taken me WAAAY out of my comfort zone.  I have always worked in business and sales and have had SOMETHING to sell.  Working for myself, I am selling myself and my reputation.  I had to ask myself - what positive things would happen if I stayed in my comfort zone?  Umm. . .nothing :(  But what positive things would happen if I put myself out there ???  So I started talking and sharing and posting and blogging and low and behold my business has been growing.



It's not always easy, so find yourself someone who loves you and will support you on your journey, whatever that may be.  And I'm always here if you need some guidance on your journey to better health and wellness.
And . . .speaking of being out of your comfort zone. . . in one of my last blogs, I posted a before and after picture of me in a bikini.  AACK!  I was terrified, but the positive response has been tremendous!  Between my partners and I, we have over 30 people on their weight loss journey with Clean Burn and Shape with Orenda.  We will help you choose the right program for your weight loss goals, provide you with meal plans and recipes, and provide support throughout the cleanse.  Email me at pamela@food2live4.com or find me on Facebook!
