This poem is a perfect fit for what my last post was all about! Enjoy!

The Comfort Zone

I used to have a comfort zone... where I knew I could not fail...

The same four walls and 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 diamonds... cars.... and such.

I claimed to be so busy... with the things inside my zone

but, deep inside... I longed...for some victory of my own.

I couldn't let my life go by... just watching others win.

I held my breath... and stepped outside... to let the change begin...

I took a step.... and with a 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, at one time were filled with doubt.

A step or two, and words of praise, can make your dreams come true....

so, greet your future with a smile... Success is there for you.
