Get Inspired - #3 You Should be Uncomfortable

A lot of us have day dream about living a fabulous and wealthy life style. But we do nothing to make that dream a reality. One reason why we do not take actions is because of the effort required.

To stand out and break out of the pack, we need to differentiate ourselves and do things most people aren’t willing to do so we can enjoy the benefits in the future that most people might not enjoy.

Growth is accompanied by uncomfortability. Uncomfortability is what leads to growth. To grow and be the best at what you do, you need to step out of your comfort zone because that’s where the magic happens. It’s true that when you step outside your comfort zone; things will start to seem harder, but not impossible, you’ll have to practice more, you’ll begin to sleep less, you’ll begin to face bigger challenges and complex problems. But to every problem there is a solution. Challenges are fun; any competition I have to face so that I can move closer to achieving my goal is a fun competition and it is worth participating.

Most of us when we do things and practice things, we do what we are good at, and we get incrementally better at things we are already good at. What we don’t do is push ourselves in new and meaningful ways. If we want to be the best at things we do we need to step out of our comfort zone and practice in ways nobody else will so we can be the best.

A good example I’ll like to use is the anime character: Naruto – If you watch this series you’ll know what I mean. Naruto never gives up. He never says never. He doesn’t shy away from problems because they are too tough. He is willing to push himself to the limit and do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. It is because of this reason he stands out from everybody else.

Nobody achieves any great thing in life by just repeating the same thing over and over again. When you try to solve a problem but cannot. Be flexible about your solutions, think outside the box, step out of your comfort zone and watch the magic happen.

Don’t shy away from challenges or problem because of the effort required to overcome them. Take the bull by the horn; be flexible about your solutions. Never give up. If something doesn’t work, try again with a different approach. Make yourself uncomfortable – that’s how you stand out from everybody else.
