Your Comfort Zone is Shrinking...Don't suffocate

Your Comfort Zone shrinks as you get older but you have to be very careful you don’t suffocate and it chokes the life out of you early.

As we get older we tend to get more set in our ways, we dislike change, and we crave certainty. The problem is we do this without even noticing and the weeds of the comfort zone choke out any potential for Living a Life Worth Living.

 Have a good look at your life and what you used to do. What excuses do you make for not doing the things that used to be exciting? “I’m too old for that shit…” or “I’ve got this old injury..” or the classic “Back in my day….”. These are all just excuses not to get out of your comfort zone again. Of course at 40 you won’t be the same physically as you were at 20, but to make excuses and to remain in an ever shrinking life, is a depressing way to live. 

Dip a toe in the water outside your comfort zone and eventually you may want to even go for a swim….
