Newbies: Still In Your Comfort Zone?

Last Update: July 26, 2012
I've been reading this book, "Believe You Can" and came across this poem that I thought I'd share with WA, especially the newbies coming in:

"Comfort Zone"

I used to have a Comfort Zone
Where I knew I couldn't fail;
The same four walls of busy work
Were really more like jail.

I longed so much to do the things
I'd never done before,
But I 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 dreams, goals and such.

I claimed to be so busy
With the things inside my 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 and 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 you are in a Comfort Zone,
Afraid to venture out,
Remember that all winners were
At one time filled with doubt.

A step of faith and the Word of God,
Can make your dreams come true.
Greet your future with a smile,
Success is there for you!

I like you poem I think it's great
I will take it to heart
because I think my comfort zone
is not worth a fart. ( well, it rhymed, lol)

Thanks!
