Believe me iot wasn't easy. I'm now trying to get other people to believe that they can do the same. Guess the credit crunch has forced lots of us out of our steady job comfort zone... well done to you for jumping! Hi Al

If you do not take that "risk" you may be missing out on opportunities. As they say "not taking risks is risky" I was in this rut where I was deciding on whether or not to leave for California where I received a nice job offer. The thing is I didn't want to leave the job I already had, or my friends. Well.. I took the job. Sure it was tough at first, but the opportunity was amazing! During my time off, I go back home to visit my friends, and sometimes they come westward so overall I am extremely happy I took the risk! -Randy Its always important to dig deeper, and to leave your comfort zone.

Having seen your presentation at the Wordpress North meetup, I think you've successfully left that comfort zone :) With the current economic climate it looks like a lot of people are going to be forced out of their comfort zones in the coming months, whether they want it or not.

We become to afraid to do anything different and more risky than our usual life routine. Where there's great risk, there's greater returns. True, fear is what holds us to our comfort zones.
