Step outside of your comfort zone!

An image of the learning zone model - comfort zone

🤔 When did you last step outside of your comfort zone?


Just a reminder that success and rewards sit outside of the comfort zone. If you stay there, you will feel safe but won't achieve anything new.


I can't believe how far I've stepped outside of my comfort zone, beyond the fear of failure into the learning zone.


In November 2023, I signed up for Sarah Fox's 'Lasting Impact' programme - which helped founders and business owners grow their success. Sarah, and colleagues on that programme, would have heard how I'm not comfortable with self-promotion or arrogance, and therefore was finding it hard to promote my business. Whilst I have confidence within my areas of expertise and within my own setting, I feared stepping beyond that.


A year ago, I avoided:

❌ posting on social media

❌ posting photos of myself

❌ posting videos

❌ attending in person networking events


I have now overcome all of those internal barriers, and have connected with some wonderful people - both virtually and in person.


The most important learning has been that I can achieve these things now. By consistently pushing outside of my comfort zone, I have gained in confidence and entered a whole new world. I'm excited to find out what the future will bring!


🤔 How have you stepped outside of your comfort zone recently?
