The comfort zone - author unknown

I used to have a comfort zone
Where I knew I couldn’t fail.
The same four walls of busy work,
Were really like a jail.

I longed so much to do the things,
I’d never done before,
But I stayed inside my comfort zone,
And paced the same old floor.

I claimed to be so busy,
With the things inside my zone.
But deep inside I longed for
Something special of my own.

I couldn’t let my life go by,
Just watching others win.
I held my breath and stepped outside
To let the change begin.

I took a step and with new strength
I’d never felt before,
I kissed my comfort zone goodbye
And closed and locked the door.

If you are in a comfort zone,
Afraid to venture out,
Remember that all winners were
At one time filled with doubt.

A step or two, and words of praise,
Can make your dreams come true.
Greet your future with a smile,
Success is there for you!
