I used to have a comfort zone where I knew I wouldn’t fail; The same four walls and busywork were really more like jail; I longed so much to do the things I’d never done before, But stayed inside my comfort zone and paced the same old floor.

I said it didn’t matter that I wasn’t doing much; I said I didn’t care for things like commission checks and such; I claimed to be so busy with the things inside the 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; I stepped outside and let the change begin; I took a step and with new strength I’d never felt before, I kissed my comfort zone good-bye and closed and locked the door.

If we’re 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 our dreams come true; Reach for our future with a smile; success is there for us!
