Motivation week 7

Growth only occurs when you leave your comfort zone. Only when you extend yourself beyond where you feel comfortable are you able to achieve growth. Growth can be anything from learning a new skill (remember those piano lessons you decided not to use?), experiencing something new, travelling or exploring yourself on the inside. 

Introspection is grossly underrated as a growth medium. Our society is teeming with people who follow trends and appear incapable of thinking for themselves. Self assessment, a form of double loop learning, enables you to change as a result of your past experiences (as well as alter the way you deal with those events when they recur). Self assessment is particularly important in how you respond to more challenging experiences life throws at you.

What is your comfort zone? Do you stay there most of the time?

What do you need to do to expand that zone?

What (positive) experiences do you need to expose yourself to in order to grow?

What is going to stop you from stagnating in life?

How do you make sure that you are on a growth path? 

What can you do today to enable you move your life in the direction you want it to go?

How can you shake up your routine to keep yourself motivated?

How can you incorporate more of the things you love doing in your daily life?
