1. Are you outside your comfort
zone?

2. As a growing publisher I am
naturally inspired by
motivational words, books or
people. The quote ahead
made me think about the
feelings encountered of being
outside our comfort zones.

3. “You have brains in your
head. You have feet in your
shoes. You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And
you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll
decide where to go...”
-Dr. Seuss

4. There are many new boundaries
to explore when running a
childcare business to the extent
decision making may take you
out of your comfort zone.
What would happen if you made
a decision to do the thing that
you thought you could never
achieve?

5. I suffered with vertigo and could not even
walk over a bridge. Until I visited
Switzerland and climbed a mountain 1128
m high! I did it with out any fear and was
so proud of doing so!

6. Talk it through with others in
reality. Reality says that we tend
to polarise all the things that
could go wrong.
Plan it through to heighten your
success and know what to expect-
an open mind to learning helps.
Explore the various feelings as
you reach outside your comfort
zone.

7. Its a worthwhile experience!
Just one question I leave you with.
What if everything went right?
Wouldn’t you feel proud that you
took that step. Be honest about
your capabilities. We were born to
be different. Stand out.
