As an entrepreneur, an employee or even as an individual, we tend to be satisfied with what we have and not seek to leave the zone in which we are used to evolving.
This zone is called the comfort zone.
This is the zone in which we have a heightened sense of control and security. Nevertheless, this is the zone where nothing new is happening.
To become better, the challenge will be to move out of the comfort zone and into the growth zone. But, unfortunately, the growth zone is pushing out and stepping into the fear zone.
To become better, the challenge will be to move out of the comfort zone and into the growth zone. But, unfortunately, the growth zone is pushing out and stepping into the fear zone.
Once you have decided to leave your comfort zone, you will reach an unknown zone. This is the fear zone. To reach this zone of fear and evolve successfully, you must learn to see failure as a stepping stone to success.
In the fear zone, you will probably lack self-confidence. In addition, the opinions of others may affect you. Worse yet, they may discourage you. Nevertheless, with your desire to move forward and reach the growth zone, you should stop for a moment and think about what you are doing and why.
This is essential.
Stopping to think will allow you to move on to become successful.
That is a certainty. It would be best if you remained convinced of this.
Through learning and perseverance, you will finally reach the growth zone. You will be able to realise your dreams and achieve your goals. But before that, you will have to find a goal. Your first step is identifying what makes you happy—it’s there where you should start with questions.
What motivates you?
What are your natural talents?
What do others see in you?
When you have found what you love, what you know how to do and what others are willing to pay for, all that is left is to find the union of these 3 sets and see a gold mine of opportunities open up for yourself.

Five years ago, I hit ‘record’ for the very first time on The Global Sales Leader Podcast. I didn’t have a perfectly soundproof studio, a production team, or even a long-term plan—just a fire in my belly and a deep desire to have conversations that mattered.
