Our comfort zones
have over time proven to be our greatest hindrances to realization of our full
potential. Sadly many people think that comfort zones are only those in which
we place ourselves consciously. Well no! We do enter some obliviously. The
worst part is when we think only the worst of these comfort zones. I now
realize that a number of good things accompany our comfort zones, weaknesses
and challenges.
Seat down and
meditate on how strong & knowledgeable we would be if we overcame our
weaknesses. Or further ponder on how much more progress we would make if we
jumped out of these comfort zones. Yes! Un-measurably strong. Imagine having
both your weaknesses and strengths at your mastery.
So the beauty in a
weakness and a comfort zone is that it simply gives us an insight on what we
can perform at and do better.
Look at it this way;
Jesus knew Judas Iscariot had trust and betrayal issues but still entrusted him
with the disciples’ treasury. Why? I have a feeling he wanted to prove
something. The Bible says “…
For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians
12; 10 KJV) the
implication simply is that your weakest point is actually your strongest. When
you think you are at your weakest is when your strength is made perfect and
manifested. Overtime I have learnt that the biggest weaknesses, fears and
challenges that I had turned out to be some of the greatest strengths I brag
about today simply because I made an outlet for the fear in my spirit and pursued
ways in which a could better my stand as far as these phenomena were concerned.
Look through your
work and search out for the challenges you have long faced, the weaknesses you
have long kept and the comfort zones you have for long dwelt in. Only this
time do not look at them as challenges but rather strengths that await you to
take the first steps into obtaining them.
A mastery of this
concept will get us to the realization that our feeble areas are not weaknesses
but merely residue awaiting recycle into what could be our greatest strength.
