Mary & Sam Show # 24 Is Your Comfort Zone Holding You Back?

Jim Rohn said, "we generally change for two reasons, desperation or inspiration." Our comfort zone is our death zone, there is no room to grow if we stay in our comfort zone. All great progress happens outside of our comfort zone. Most people are afraid to fail so they never want to take the chance, stepping back to their comfort zone. There is no failing, only forward failing. Forward failing is when you fail but learn from your mistakes and do it differently next time. John Maxwell said "I believe it's nearly impossible for any person to believe he or she is a failure and move forward at the same time. For those who have been downsized, let go, or bankrupted, the temptation may be to internalize failure. My hope is that anyone who has suffered setbacks recently will be able to separate life's unfortunate events from their self-worth. Failure, like death and taxes, will happen. Your response to failure holds the key to your future.".
