I\u2019ve talked a lot about change lately\u2026of all types. I have wanted to make some changes in my life in the hopes of pushing my comfort levels in different areas of life. Well, I\u2019ve definitely made some massive changes over the past six months which have tested my own personal \u201ccomfort\u201d with varying outcomes.
\nSome changes have caused awesome things to happen while other changes have created some severe discomfort that I\u2019m not coping with as well. But after thinking about it I think this may be just what I needed. Most of us become so spoiled in our day to day lives and we don\u2019t even realize it, we don\u2019t realize how amazingly fortunate we are\u2026it\u2019s the \u201cI always want more, bigger, and better\u201d syndrome.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s my belief that doing the same thing over and over again, day after day, is NOT what life is about. I have noticed in my life that \u201croutine\u201d has never led to anything enjoyable or rewarding\u2026routine is equivalent to a rut.
\nIf you\u2019re never exploring the unknown, the uncomfortable, or the boundaries\u2026what is pushing you? Think back to all the times you\u2019ve learned the most, or grown, or had some amazing thing happen\u2026it\u2019s typically due to hardship or disruption to your routine.<\/p>\n

So, I know change can be scary, and not always lead to the \u201cdesired\u201d outcome\u2026but even when that happens you are growing; and guess what? Life is a constantly evolving, living entity in which we inhabit, and more importantly, you must remember that humans are extremely adaptable to change.<\/p>\n

I may decide to write more specifically about what changes I have undergone\u2026or I may not. The point however, is that I am making changes because I don\u2019t want to live a sedentary life so the specifics don\u2019t necessarily matter. What I do know for sure is that I yearn for a life where I am constantly growing from actively doing things versus sitting on my ass reading which is what most people I know do to \u201cgrow\u201d.<\/p>\n

I hate to break it to you though, true growth comes from YOU \u201cdoing\u201d, not reading what other people\u2019s opinions are.<\/p>\n
