Q

Comfort zone

A

A situation where you feel comfortable & safe & where your ability is not being tested.
It really continuously pushes the comfort zone to its limit & beyond it. So every time I can have a chance to step out of my comfort zone. a little piece of that fear of the unknown is removed & replaced with a little piece of empowerment. & by continuously doing that the size of my fear bubble has gotten smaller.
