The more you rationalize, the more you move farther away from your authentic self.

I know of no better or quicker way to step into my greatness than to step out of what’s familiar.

Everything we want is outside of our comfort zone and other side is fear.

Sometimes we have to step out of our comfort zones. We have to break the rules. And we have to discover the sensuality of fear. We need to face it, challenge it, dance with it.

A person who doesn’t have a structured way of writing their goals will experience disorder, even in the comfort zone.

We are so accustomed to the comforts of “I cannot”, “I do not want to” and “it is too difficult” that we forget to realize when we stop doing things for ourselves and expect others to dance around us, we are not achieving greatness. We have made ourselves weak.

So I forced myself to step out of my comfort zone and go out and connect with people. I realised that no one knew me here. I could become whoever I wanted to be for these people, and that became my courage.

I’ll record what I’ve learnt on the subject of what I sell. What it actually is means little to anyone other than me, but what it does and how it helps, means everything to those who require it.

March out of the common line; make bold steps ahead and dance to the tune of a sweeter, better and nicer tone of your own music. March out of the tiny box!

Sometimes the path of least resistance leads us to a place of great indifference.

In the long run, our comfort zone becomes our uncomfortable zone.

I now know that success can not choose me. It is waiting on a path that I must walk. In truth, it waits there for everyone.Many do not know where the path begins. Some search for a shortcut to the end. But the majority of the world does not even realise there is a path...

No longer will I measure myself against competitors, who don’t even know that a race is being run. From now on, I will measure myself against the man in front of me. I will measure myself against a new personal best, achieving my next ambitious goal.

So open questions to understand. Closed questions to confirm and gain commitment.

Did you sell to them or did you simply facilitate their buying from you, hmm? Very different scenarios, my boy, very different indeed.

Everything you desire is always just outside your comfort zone, dear boy. If it wasn’t you would already possess it, would you not?

You know something, it’s not easy to break out of your comfort zone. People will tear you down, tell you you shouldn’t have bothered in the first place. But let me tell you something, there’s not much of a difference between a stadium full with cheering fans and an angry crowd screaming abuse at you....

Engaging in activities devoid of difficulty, lounging in risk-free zones, is life without great meaning.

To be wrecked begins with an experience that pulls you out of your comfort zone and self-centeredness, whether you want it or not.

Who is going to teach fighting spirit to our kids if they are growing up watching us sitting in a comfortable zone in life.We got to wake up and fight it out in our areas of passion, and be an example for our kids.

You can’t be a successful leader or mentor until you have served. You can’t serve until you have stepped out of your comfort zone. And you can’t step out of your comfort zone unless you have character and keep your word.

Rationalizing is another road that leads to hell.

This is the new year the new you. You can pass through another year, coasting on cruise control. Or you can step out of your comfort zone, trying things you have never done before, & make 2012 as the year that you elevate from where you are & soar high. Make it happen!

The thing about life, about change, is there are always lessons. Some are subtle, others not, and sometimes it takes being ripped out of your comfort zone to finally get it—then it’s transformative.

Make life about more than just you. Take the world around you and transform it for the sake of others. Do a good deed for your neighbor; smile at strangers; volunteer for a bigger purpose and don’t except anything in return. The first step of redemption is digging yourself out of the hole you dug...

Settling for what is comfortable is one of the biggest enemies to our enlargement…In every season of life…we need to be committed to enlarging our personal capacity (even when it’s not comfortable). We need to refuse to be satisfied with our latest accomplishments, as what we’ve accomplished is no longer our potential because it has...

Most attribute the domain of night to evil because they can’t see. People fear the shadows of the night because shadows represent the unknown, and the unknown is frightening. They assume evil lurks behind every shadow, in every corner not illuminated. But their fear of the unknown is often what really terrifies them. They find...

That’s what marks out the successful from the nearly-rans. Focusing on what makes people itch rather than continuously presenting an entire catalogue of scratches.

Now you learn about the greatest tool available to any salesman. I’m going to give you an introduction into something that will help customers recognise the value of your offer all by themselves.

I have been like a mediocre concert pianist playing in front of a tone-deaf family, who applaud out of duty rather than for accomplishment.

No, I’m afraid your overconfidence, as with most young men who dream of becoming successful, can quite quickly become the Achilles’ heel of your continued mediocrity

Customers do not want a lecture from you and they certainly don’t want some juvenile in a bad suit forcing his wares upon them

Success would be a fairly boring and uninspiring dish if anybody could create it with a single ingredient, however difficult that ingredient was to find. No, success has several layers to its pallet. This is just the beginning

Well, at the risk of sounding a bit harsh…I think we can safely say that your recent successes could have just as easily been achieved by a mute monkey in a tiny business suit, holding up a written explanation of whatever it was the monkey was attempting to sell

Break away from the box confining you. Positive dreamers do not follow the status quo. They keep raising the standard of the bar higher and higher. Raise the bar.

Never say “I don’t care”! We are all looking up to you. Dare to break the fence that confines you! Make it happen!

Change comes with sacrifice… When you want to make a change you must be prepared to make a sacrifice of escaping the comfort zone!

If you are not angry with your average performance, you can’t effect a change! You must get upset to grab the energy to break the fence confining you!

The magic rarely happens within our comfort zone, but outside it, on the ragged, scary edge, where we have to fight like hell to keep from drowning in the unknown.

The further you get away from yourself, the more challenging it is. Not to be in your comfort zone is great fun.

We cannot expect to grow if we are too afraid or unwilling to change and face challenges. When we exit our everyday, mundane lifestyles to do something different we can experience growth, undiscovered strength, and new abilities within ourselves.

I will not allow my mistakes of the past compromise my hope for the future.

Truth was never meant to make you comfortable, unless you stand in the middle of it with acceptance.

In the industry, trying out new genres is not always encouraged but what I’ve discovered is that as a writer, a jaunt outside my comfort zone generally brings new skills to the main body of my work.

God has given you the power and desire to change but you still need to be willing to do the work. Doing the work means facing your fears and getting out of your comfort zone.

Your comfort zone is not that comfortable.

Comfort is your biggest trap and coming out of comfort zone your biggest challenge.

Bad habits are like comfort zones; easier to get into, but harder to get out of.

Have a peculiar passion, audacity and boldness that see farther and further into the outer space.

But without a need, even the finest piece of beef is merely a piece of dead bull is it not?
