comfort {zones}

by Tina on March 20, 2009

Stepping outside our comfort zones can be terrifying and daunting. What if it doesn’t turn out well? What if no one likes my work? What if I don’t like it either? How do you handle change and new things in your life? For me, I take a deep breath and dive in. Because I believe that becoming stagnant is infinitely worse than anything a risk could afford.

It might take me a few tries and it might take a little time to get it all figured out, but isn’t that half the fun? Watching a new thing be born in creativity is thrilling. It’s like Spring- everything is new and fresh and even the littlest things are coming to life!
