Now, how many times have you heard someone say, go to college and get a good job? This is something that has been programmed in us and preached to us since we were kids stepping out of your comfort zone is what separates you from everyone else. It's not the easiest path, but it's by far the most rewarding for those of you who don't know, I'm your host, let Weaver and I truly care about your mental wellbeing. We can all be positive lights in this world around us. And my goal with this episode is to open new doors of thoughts and truths that lead to transformation. I thank you for joining me today. And before we move forward, I gotta ask you these important questions. Have you struggled to expand your, your horizons and get outta your comfort zone? Are you afraid to take risks in the most important question of the all? Do you feel failure?

Speaker 2:

Yeah. Well

Speaker 1:

You, me, us let's talk now a good comedian by the name of Jerry Seinfeld. Once said sometimes the road less travel is less travel for a reason. This is valuable insight that shows just how many people are afraid to take risks. The role to success. Isn't in a straight line and it's even bumpier than you could imagine. But you have to know that these bumps are what builds character failure is what holds a lot of people back.

Speaker 2:

Hold

Speaker 1:

On. Wait, I should rephrase that. The fear of failure holds a lot of people back. It's what keeps telling to people on the sideline. It's what keeps someone who has a brilliant world changing idea, cooped up in a little cubicle. The fear of failure is right beside the field of deaf and the field. Public speaking. It's real, it's powerful. And it prevents a lot of innovation from happening while we're on the subject of quoting famous comedians. Another legend in the world of comedy has said something so powerful that has changed the way I perceive failure. He see you feel you, he elegantly said during an acceptance speech, You can fail at what you don't want. So you might as well take a chance on doing what you love. That's a brilliant perspective, right? I mean, it's so true. You can fail your nine to five. You can get fired, you can fail and flunk out of a college that you didn't really want to attend. You could fail in a marriage that you shouldn't have never been in in the first place. At least if you fail at doing something you love, you spent all your time doing what you love. It's a powerful perspective that each and every one of us should apply to our lives. I mean, I think we can all agree that the greatest discoveries happen on the other side of taking risks. And I quote, man, cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore. This rings true. Even in this modern world that we live in today, this country is still needs innovation. It needs inventions and man's ingenuity. If we're going to remain the greatest nation in the world right now, it seems like we're lacking on the production and the manufacturing side of our goods and services, our needs they've been outsourced and our wants. They're put above all. We soon pleasure entertainment and excess luxuries, that many folks in the world don't get to enjoy. In turn. This has led to an E uh, economy that has been St in a generation of complacency. We have such an opportunity to rise up and go against the grain. And it all starts with expanding your comfort zone. Change is one of the greatest things that will ever happen to you in life. It pushes you to think differently, act differently and pursue different and endeavors.
