It is when I am most uncomfortable…kicked out of my comfort zone and forced to explore, research, and apply myself…that I achieve “it.”
The project is completed.
The milestone is passed.
My advocacy is heard.
My goal is recognized.
And I wear my accomplishment proudly as I cross the finish line.
Then I reflect on my first thought before the journey began: “I’ll never be able to do this. It’s too hard. I’ve never done this before. I don’t know how.”
And I realize…it wasn’t my inability that held me back. It was the anticipation of uncertainty, the discomfort of not knowing yet.
In time, the old noise quiets.
In its place rises acceptance:
I can.
I did.
And I always will… at least reach beyond comfort.
Even in my most anxious moments, I’m reminded that growth never happens in comfort. Each wave of uncertainty is shaping me into someone stronger, steadier, and more at peace with the unknown…where I am able to give over.
Love and blessings,
Wendy
