We all face wilderness moments in our lives, but when we open ourselves to God in those moments, we can be transformed. In the wilderness, we learn to let go of the inessential so we can focus on the essential.

The reality of what a comfort zone is Comfort zone is an inaccurate term. That's because, though it implies comfort, mostly the zone is one of familiarity. You know it, what's within it, how it works, and all that you can expect from this zone. It's comfortable only because it's familiar. When faced with the uncertain and the unfamiliar, having a comfort zone can and will make you feel stabler and better overall. The problem is that from within your comfort zone, your growth is massively limited. That's because to grow, evolve, and command change, you must be willing to move into the uncomfortable. This is the ultimate open cell you can't leave. Or more realistically, are afraid to leave because outside of it is the unknown. Trauma is a thing             The truth is that I've spent most of my adult life in combat mode. I've fought depression. There have been many struggles finding and keeping jobs (and getting paid anywhere near what I'm worth). During most of my 20s and 30s, I moved through a lot of relationships and attempted to put my polyamorous, square-peg self into a monogamous round-hole box. I've struggled with my weight, self-worth, and working on balancing my emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical health, wellness, and wellbeing. In the past 15 years or so, things have shifted. A lot. My life is stable, and I haven't the foggiest idea what to do with that. It's like I subconsciously need the challenges, the drama, the issues, and the troubles. Because without them I'm feeling oddly stuck. Applied mindfulness Practice active conscious awareness. Mindfulness is being actively aware, here and now, of your thoughts, feelings, actions, intentions, and choice of a positive or negative approach. That present awareness opens the way for you to see not how it should be, or how “they” desire it to be, but how it is. This, however, can be really disconcerting. Particularly if you have been practicing mindfulness with a modicum of success. For example, via that practice, you've also made active choices and decisions for how to live your life, your way. How to leave a comfort zone One foot in front of the other. To quote Lao Tzu, “The journey of a thousand miles begins beneath one's feet.” The first step is to recognize that I'm in an undesirable comfort zone. The second step is to recognize that it is, in fact, mine to leave. Then, the third step is to acknowledge this. Skipping acknowledgment is the equivalent of recognizing that the first step out the door is a 2-foot drop, but not taking that into account when you take the step. After recognition and acknowledgment, the fourth step is to leave the comfort zone. There is, however, an important bit to keep in mind here. Why? What is my why behind leaving the comfort zone? To leave a familiar but not comfortable place is a good answer, but still doesn't explore the next part. Where am I striving to get myself to? That's the tough part. It requires that I strike a balance between where I am, here and now, and where I desire to be. To get from here to there, steps must be taken. This week's Applied Guidance for Mindfulness Tool: If you're feeling in any way stuck, examine if there's a why you can put a finger on. If so, consider where you desire to be, then take the following 4 steps: 1.      Recognize that you're in an undesirable comfort zone. 2.      Recognize that it is, in fact, yours to leave. 3.      Acknowledge this. This cannot be skipped. 4.      Leave the comfort zone. Repeat whenever you seek to make changes for yourself and your life.

Voices of Experience - 05 - 01 - 24 - Leaving Comfort Zones Behind by Alternative Talk- 1150AM KKNW

“The biggest risk is not taking any risk. In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.” - Mark Zuckerberg

Leaving our comfort zone is hard. Staying broke is also hard. Choose your heart. Welcome to Monday's episode. Number one or six. Many times we have trouble leaving our comfort zone. Why? Because it's called comfort zone. We are used to something. We expect certain things. And I guess we build up fear of what will happen if we change. But at the end of the week, if you're unhappy with your results, that means your choice wasn't what you're expecting. Maybe it's not so comfortable. Maybe our problem is that we think we're comfortable because we're in this comfort zone, but we're unhappy with the result. So the only way to make a difference is to choose something different. Leave that comfort zone. Learn more, grow more, do more, and then expect different results. Because the definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over and over and expect the same results. Now, when we're in our comfort zone, that's exactly what we're doing. It's time to get up, step up and move forward. I challenge you to take a step forward and do something different that is more challenging and something that you thought that maybe you were never going to do or something you've been procrastinate hating on. I challenge you to do it this week and let's move forward together.

Nothing of significance happens in the comfort zone. -Growing leaders always reinvent themselves. -Effective businesses have no option but to venture into the land of the unknown. -And church's, who are determined to operate in the realm of the prophetic and miraculous, leave the land of comfort behind.

One of our other high school friends, Adino, continued his studies in United Kingdom after graduating Grade 10. We interviewed him and discussed his personal experiences with culture shock as well as the need to get out of comfort zone.

  In the scriptures, 241 times in the New King James, “fear not” or “do not fear” appeared in the Bible. 241 times, God took His people into their calling, their purpose, or their next step which required more than their own strength (and courage) to fulfill. 241 times, His people saw glimpses of what He had in store and it seemed too impossible, too big, too fantastical for their imaginations to fathom. 241 times, His people felt the weight of where He was taking them and fear was right there trying to hold them back. But God.  Amy and Tammy get vulnerable and honest about their most debilitating fears. They share about how fear can teach us about ourselves. But how fear does not get to dictate what we will or will not do when God calls.   "I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you." Isaiah 41:13 NIV   PurposeFULL Living originally airs every Thursday at 12:30pm CST on @graceandtruthradio.world.

“It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.” –J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone   Jessica Honegger is the author of Imperfect Courage: Live a Life of Purpose by Leaving Comfort and Going Scared and the Founder of socially conscious fashion brand Noonday Collection, the world's most successful fair trade fashion brand.   And in her book, Jessica shares the powerful story of Noonday: “The story of Noonday is so much bigger than me. It's the story of artisans all around the world. It's the story of entrepreneurs in young America. It's the story of my partner and I and my family.”   This story all began with a trip to Washington, D.C., where Jessica was shown poverty firsthand for the first time – “and that was really what sparked bravery in me, seeing this context of living outside of my own bubble, living outside of myself, being willing to go pioneer a new script.”   Jessica grew up in a community where everyone followed very traditional scripts that had a narrow view of success, but being exposed to the Church of the Savior, its founder Gordon Cosby, and the greater efforts of Martin Luther King, Jr. inspired Jessica to write a new script.   She didn't have the support of everyone she grew up with, she didn't even have the support of the voice in her head all the time, but she had to walk through her fear to reach the life of impact and meaning that she was destined for.   Because we can't let fear be a red flag, as Jessica describes. We have to view it as a yellow flag that means, no, walk this way and come see what's on the other side of that fear. “You can't really walk around fear – you just kinda have to walk through it.”   And when you read https://jessicahonegger.com/book/imperfect-courage/ ( Imperfect Courage), it will guide you through these same steps so that you can live the life of impact and meaning that you were meant to live, too.   --     Resources: Read: Imperfect Courage: Live a Life of Purpose by Leaving Comfort and Going Scared Listen: Going Scared Podcast Shop Noonday Collection: noondaycollection.com Connect with Jessica: Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn   --   We are brought to you by the Lawton Marketing Group, a full-service advertising and design agency serving companies and entrepreneurs at all levels.
