Moving out of our circle of comfort is difficult.
We create a safe circle and sometimes without knowing, we expand the border of that circle to let in new things. Then comes a point where you are at the end of your circle and want to make a new one. Or you may not want to make a new one, but fate keeps presenting you with doorways to a new circle. It is big, hard to navigate and sometimes, terrifying. Vulnerability, fear, new routines, learning something new, failure, taking criticism, all lie in this new perimeter. Feeling vulnerable can send you crawling back to your old circle. Sometimes you need to do that. But then you may find it is not where you want to be and you are ready to get out there. Have the courage. Try new things. Get uncomfortable. It may be terrible and terrifying when you are in it. Have support systems in place so you can talk to someone about your feelings and fears. You have to go through the muck to get to the beautiful side. Take small steps and when you are ready, or even if you do not know if you are ready, take a breath... And take the leap. Have faith. You got this, warrior. |
