Our comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there. We stay in our safe space because it is known, it is certain. And as much as we may want something, just wanting it isn’t enough. We have to want it more than we fear failing or fear the unknown of what will happen once we leave the warm blanket in our comfort zone.
Fear can run amok when we are overwhelmed, and we don’t have a plan. Many times, we haven’t even defined what we want specifically. So how can we better position ourselves to overcome our fears when trying to make a change?
Tony Robbins created a workbook for his Rapid Planning Method, which is linked here which you can print out. This method is more of a system of thinking that helps you define what you want, internalize your why (why you want it) and come up with a specific plan that helps you take massive action towards your goal.
When you have multiple plans that you have strategically thought through to get to your goal, it becomes less intimidating and scary. Knowing that if the first few plans don’t work, that’s okay because you’ve got many more strategies. And you aren’t going to quit because you want it more than anything.
Do you want it more than you fear it?
