Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone….I DID!

WOW!  I just returned from Indianapolis IN, I spoke at the Indianapolis SHRM.  While I was there I got to stay with my high school friend and locker partner Laura Borders.  Laura owns and runs the Spice Challenge Course in Indianapolis. http://spicechallenge.com/  When you go to the site you will see what I did!  I did the Canopy Tour….ziplining!  Did I get out of my comfort zone?  You bet!  Not as much as some of the others.  Three of the women who went with me…are you ready….were afraid of heights.  Now those of you who know me know I can be a pretty good motivator, I cheer everybody on!  This was the loudest and longest I had to cheer.  These ladies were SCARED! But..they did it.  There were screams, laughter and even tears.  I call it exhilaration!  We not only had fun we flew out of our comfort zone.

I’m not saying you have to go to this extent (but you should).  I’m saying DO SOMETHING that makes you uncomfortable.  It is the most freeing thing you can do for yourself.  Now…I got to go and figure out my next adventure!!!  What are you going to do to get of your comfort zone?  Woo! Hoo!
