How many people settle for the wrong mate, the wrong career, don’t pursue their dreams, settle for C’s rather than push for A’s from their children, and become comfortable in our right now. Look at part 2 of the definition:
to sink gradually or to the bottom b : to become clear by the deposit of sediment or scum c : to become compact by sinking.
I don’t know about you but I don’t want my dreams, my family, or any other part of my life to gradually sink to the bottom out of fear or comfort. I want every area of my life to grow and float to the top.
So here’s the challenge, start our small, pick one area of your life and practice getting out of your comfort zone. Don’t quit your job or leave your husband/wife (lol), but pick one thing and see how it feels to be FREE.
