Barreling ahead: Unstoppable. Force of will. Make it happen. My way or the highway.
Laying back: Patience. Conservation. Waiting for the right time. What do you think?
Which do you apply and when? Exactly, that’s the question.
I find my comfort zone is the best guide.
In hindsight, I can see how the comfort zone has shaped my journey. I recognize the little monuments of both growth and regression over my path that directly related to my level of comfort. Most times I grew, made progress, or ended up better, it was because I stepped out or was forced out of my comfort zone. I can also look back and regret the opportunities missed or not taken because I was too afraid to test the waters outside the comfort zone.
Which feels more uncomfortable in the moment?
Do the uncomfortable.
