How to escape your comfort zone

Cassan Ferguson

June 1, 2016

Let’s be honest, moving out of comfort zones willingly doesn’t come naturally to some of us. In fact, we love living in our comfort zones, because it’s comfortable! Plus, it’s familiar, it’s safe, it’s easy – what’s not to love, right? Wrong: Being stuck in a comfort zone stifles your growth mentally, emotionally , and physically at times.

COMFORT ZONE MENTALITIES

1. ” I don’t want to grow and learn new things.”

A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing grows there.

When we live in our comfort zones, our world and ways of thinking remain small because we aren’t open to stepping out into the unknown. Or maybe we fear the change, or the challenge it may bring along with it. However, comfort zones can only take you so far – stepping out of your comfort zone encourages growth and enlarges your capacity to take on more.

Are you currently living in a comfort zone?

2. ” I am afraid of the unknown.”

Fearing the unknown is a control issue. Because we do not know the external outcome, we don’t feel confident in ourselves or in our circumstances. The unknown cannot be controlled – the unknown needs to be discovered and needs to be embraced for what it is as it unfolds before us.

Easier said that done, right? Stepping out of our comfort zones requires patience, trust in ourselves, practice in the doing and the taking of small steps out of our comfort zones. The more we do it, the more familiar it becomes, and the more confident we will feel in stepping out of our comfort zones.

What are you afraid of ? What thoughts stop you from moving forward?

3. ” I am afraid of failing.”

Sometimes we give up before exploring an option, or rising up to a challenge, because we assume the worst without even trying. There was a season in my life where I lived under this mentality. I would give up without even trying. I would dismiss myself and assume that I was not capable of doing things. Boy , how wrong was I. I decided to overcome this way of thinking by taking action against it. Through the doing, I soon realised, “actually I can do it, and I am learning as I am doing it!” I believe that your confidence will grow as you step out and realise that you are more than capable of doing something that seems bigger than you.

Do you doubt yourself? If so, why? Take action against those thoughts!

4 . ” I am afraid of believing and dreaming.”

I read this quote the other day:

“Comfort zones are where dreams go to die!”

It seems a bit dark, and a bit harsh – but how true! If we remain in our comfort zones we never allow ourselves to dream, because our thinking will always be small and stuck in what is familiar and comfortable.

Dreaming and taking action in moving closer towards those dreams requires action and faith. This means doing things that are unfamiliar. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want the years to pass by knowing that my ability to dream and live boldly passed by with it.

What dreams have you avoided exploring due to fear?

Be fearless. Have the courage to take risks. Go where there are no guarantees. Get out of your comfort zone even if it means being uncomfortable. The road less travelled is sometimes fraught with barricades, bumps, and uncharted terrain. But it is on that road where your character is truly tested. Have the courage to accept that you are not perfect, and that no one else is, and that is okay!
– Katie Courie

I firmly believe that God created us to live a life that we enjoy, not just endure! What is stopping you from moving out of your comfort zone, and how do you intend to move past it?

What consumes your mind?

I read this quote the other day:

“What consumes your mind, controls your life.”

I stopped for a moment, and thought to myself: “What is consuming my thoughts lately, and how is it affecting the way I live in the day to day?” I know at the moment I am feeling slightly anxious as I have a few productions coming up. When I feel anxious, I know I need to go back to the root of why it is making me feel anxious. This often stems from my thoughts and perceptions of what’s to come. Sometimes, without realising it, I subconsciously feed into my fearful thoughts, which in turn sets off my anxiety, and affects my health and emotional wellbeing.

REFRAME THE WAY YOU THINK

When I feel anxious, I stop and I ask myself the following practical questions:

1. WHAT AM I CURRENTLY FEELING, AND WHY?

Emotions and actions are a by-product of our thoughts. Start off by acknowledging what you are feeling, and why you may be feeling that way. Is something making you feel insecure, overwhelmed, hurt, or anxious, and if so, what triggered those emotional responses?

2. WHERE DO THESE THOUGHTS STEM FROM?

Sometimes we need to take a moment to really dissect how our mind works. This may mean understanding how you perceive things due to your upbringing and personal life experiences. These factors shape the way you think and the way you behave. We tend to respond to things based on our fears and insecurities. We need to understand why we automatically gravitate towards those thoughts.

3. HOW CAN I CHANGE THE WAY I THINK?

Once we have identified the root cause of our negative ways of thinking, we need to replace it with some faith-filled truths. If circumstances feel overwhelming, we need to lean on God for help. He is so gracious in the way He lovingly carries us through enduring seasons. When we replace our negative thoughts with thoughts of God’s promises and profound truths that are found in the Bible, we start to reframe the way we think, which in turn breathes fresh life and courage over our lives.

God can replace every lie, every fear, and every negative thought, and turn these into thoughts that are filled with hope, love, and courage.

Living on empty

Are you tired of feeling tired all of the time? I am starting to get tired, if not frustrated with myself whenever I hear myself say: “Gosh, I am so tired!” I feel like I’ve let that phrase become my catchphrase! And yes, I am tired of feeling tired – anybody else with me?

I am a mom of a toddler, which means sleep is a thing of the past. The very distant past. Now, don’t get me wrong, some nights we all sleep like a dream and wake up feeling as if we have all returned from a tropical holiday. Other nights, however, we have what we call “stay awake parties,” a.k.a. “teething, illness, nightmares, and growth spurts”. On top of all that lovely sleep deprivation, I still need to balance being a career woman, a mom, a wife, and a friend, as well as other commitments and creative projects. This can be exhausting, if not draining at times, and I start to live on empty – which does not benefit anyone in the long term.

ARE YOU LIVING ON EMPTY?

• Are you struggling to concentrate during meetings ?
• Do you ever feel like you are in a constant state of mental fogginess?
• Are you being forgetful?
• Do you have neck tension or tension headaches?
• Are you skipping meals, or maybe stress eating all the time?
• Are you moody or overly sensitive?
• Are your to-do lists haunting you in your sleep?

If you have answered yes to most of these questions, then it’s possible that you to may be living on empty. You have put everyone and everything else first, and have forgotten about your own wellbeing. Making your health a priority not only refreshes you, but it blesses those around you in the long term.

When we feel over-tired, stressed, and emotionally exhausted, we need to start looking at ways in which we can balance and refresh all areas of our lives.

RECHARGE

• Go outside and get moving.
• Get lost in a good book.
• Meet up with friends for coffee.
• Drink water and stay hydrated.
• Go to bed earlier.
• Journal moments from your day, it’s a great way to reflect internally.
• Sit in nature, and take in the sights, sounds, and smells.

Just remember that you are important, and your health and happiness is important. We should not endure life, we should enjoy it – every moment of it. When we place value on our happiness and on our health, we will make decisions and commitments based on that. This in turn will not only refresh us, but bless those around us. Therefore everyone will benefit from you prioritising your health, which means everyone wins at the end of the day!

Are you a clone or a masterpiece?

It’s one thing to be inspired and encouraged by someone’s lifestyle, but it’s another thing entirely when we start to clone their lifestyle and try to imitate them. You see it all the time in this day and age – whether it’s young girls going for plastic surgery in their earlier teens to try and physically imitate other celebrities, or people trying to imitate a lifestyle that they simply can’t afford. I have even seen people duplicate social media accounts pretending to be somebody else online.

CLONE CRISIS

People go to drastic measures – from plastic surgery to taking on financial debt – in order to live a lifestyle like somebody else. The sad reality is that some people believe that if they do these things they too will be happy, like the people they imitate. The truth of the matter is that they won’t find true happiness whilst trying to live somebody else’s lifestyle.

IDENTITY CRISIS

We imitate others when we forget who we are. Maybe we have never really liked who we are. Or maybe we do not recognise all the diverse, intricate details that make us who we are. Then we start to feel insecure, we become jealous, we get caught up in comparing and feeling like we are always getting the raw end of the deal. Because we feel lost in who we are, we tend to seek other things as a means of filling that void in our hearts.

A MASTERPIECE

In the Bible we are referred to as God’s masterpiece. We are a work of art. Created in Gods image. Designed with unique qualities, gifts, talents, and passions. In order to redefine our identity, we need to know who we are in God. This comes from being in a personal relationship with Him. When we get to know the heart of God, and become familiar with His voice and with His promises, we soon start to recognise our worth and value.

“Be who you are meant to be, and you will set the world on fire.” – St Catherine

If God wanted you to be somebody else, you wouldn’t exist. But he wanted you! He made you to be you. Therefore embrace who you are, and celebrate that daily. If this post spoke to you, and if you want to know more about living in a relationship with God, then why not click on the link below.

How to slow down and be more present

This weekend past, I made it my personal mission to slow down and be more present with my family. This meant I was intentional about engaging in active play with my son, and listening and responding in a way that was personal and specific. We had so much fun together, and we all felt connected and on the same page.

Most days I am present with my family and I’m actively engaging with them. But on other days, like most of us, stress and exhaustion distracts me and I find myself lost in my thoughts or switching off mentally. Most of the time I am not aware of it, and I think that’s been a problem. I may be with my family physically, but my thoughts are elsewhere.

Do you ever find yourself worrying about things that haven’t even happened yet? Or maybe you are stressing about tomorrow’s worries? It’s almost as if you are living in tomorrow without going through the motions of today?

TOMORROW CAN WAIT

When we worry about tomorrow and the potential “what ifs” that it may or may not bring, we bring on unnecessary anxiety. This may cause us to withdraw emotionally and mentally. That vacant behaviour affects not only us but those we love. They will start to feel neglected. Your emotional absence is deeply felt and it will negatively impact your family dynamic.

Let tomorrow’s thoughts go. If something is out of your control, let it go. If something is awaiting your attention, and it can wait until tomorrow, then leave it until then. Do not fear the unknown or what tomorrow may bring. Embrace each and every moment as it comes with confidence, knowing that you are more than capable of handling it when it comes.

BE PRESENT

I tend to lean towards the more anxious side of life, and I have an introverted nature. Therefore, I have to be more actively aware of daily decisions that help me to be more present in the moment instead of fearing tomorrow.

This may mean the following:

When my family is with me, I need to put my phone away, and respond to messages or emails either when my son is asleep or in the morning.

Sometimes what helps me to get out of living in my head and getting lost in my thoughts is doing something practical or physical, like going for a walk with my son in the afternoons and visiting and playing in the park with him. Practically, I tend to write things down in a journal. This could be thoughts that are bothering me, or the writing of practical lists of things that need to get done.

Doing something new together as a family is always refreshing and it encourages active engagement from everyone. Find something new and fun for your family to experience together.

Being more present with our family places value on them, and deepens the bond between members of the family. Family members start to flourish when they feel valued and loved. Never underestimate the power of giving your full, undivided attention to your VIP family members. I believe that when you actively choose to be present, it not only impacts others, but it will refresh you!

The greatest gift you can give someone is your time. Because when you give your time, you are giving a portion of your life that you will never get back.

How to overcome anxiety

At some point in our lives, every one of us will experience anxiety. Some of us will experience it seasonally based on stressful situations and circumstances, whilst others will experience anxiety every single day.

Anxiety is defined as: A feeling of worry, nervousness, or an unease about something with an uncertain outcome.

People experience different levels of anxiety. For some it’s mild, whilst for others it can be severe if not extremely debilitating, which in turn can have a negative impact on daily living. Anxiety is that constant feeling of drowning, feeling out of control, helpless, fearful, and overwhelmed.

It’s easy to just tell an anxious person “Hey, stop feeling anxious, it will be okay!” But in actual fact is not easy for an anxious person with real fears and worries. They can’t just switch off like a tap. It’s something that they need to be conscious of working through, one little step at a time.

I go through seasons where my anxiety builds over time, and I become an emotional mess. I will overthink things, think fearful thoughts and feel very helpless and overwhelmed. I might know that some of my fears are totally irrational and maybe a bit far fetched at times. But in those moments it feels real and all-consuming. I have to really claw my way through it.

WHEN ANXIETY RISES

I don’t want to live an anxious life, so when my anxiety rises I start to do the following:

1 . ASK

I stop for a moment and I simply pray. I pray through the fears and through the tears. I ask God to give me peace and to settle my anxious heart. I ask God to walk me through it. I ask Him to give me peace, and to grace me with the strength to push through those moments.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. – Philippians 4:6-7

2 . SURRENDER

Surrendering all of our fears to God requires trust, and it requires us to let go and to take the things that are out of our control and to place them into His loving hands. Sometimes, we become so attached to our burdens we try to hide it from the world – maybe because we feel ashamed of it. Then we start to suffer silently, and disconnect from others. The truth is that God wants us to come to Him, to rest in Him, to feel loved and whole in Him, in His presence!

Cast all your anxiety on Him, because he cares for you. – 1 Peter 5:7

3 . SPEAK

Our words have the power of life or death. We have a choice when it comes to the words we speak over our lives! We can either say empowering words that have the power to push and pull us towards victory. Or we can choose words that cause us to live in a world of constant negativity, fear, and insecurity! When you feel overwhelmed or defeated, change the way you speak. Your actions will follow your words, so choose wisely when it comes to your words.

If your heart and mind are feeling anxious, just know that it will soon pass. You may feel defeated and overwhelmed with anxious thoughts; but know that you are not alone and that you can call out to God to help navigate you through it all.

Beyoncé, Jay-z, and a bit of lemonade

When the world encountered the airing of Beyonce’s visual album Lemonade, there was a slight pause, if not a brain freeze, followed by: “What just happened?” The album features powerful music videos that are linked and threaded through with powerful poetry narrated by Beyoncé herself, written by Warsan Shire.

The songs start off with titles such as Intuition, Denial, Apathy, Emptiness and, eventually, Resurrection. The album revolves around the theme of infidelity, and the emotional journey that eventually leads to reconciliation and forgiveness. Her performance throughout is powerful, honest, and raw on so many levels. The voice narrative throughout, links and binds the visual story from start to finish. The album also explores the experience of black womanhood, and a sisterhood of women rising together in unity.

After watching Lemonade you can’t help but feel moved, empowered, and inspired creatively. I thought it was very bold and brave of her to speak so openly and honestly about something so personal. I admire that both her and her husband were okay about sharing something so personal, as a means of empowering and encouraging others to find their healing, peace, and resolve.

On the other hand I must be honest, I questioned whether doing something like was used as a means of making more money and creating hype and sensation within the industry. I suppose we live in a day and age where things aren’t as sacred or private anymore. Everything is aired online for all to see, judge, criticise.

THINGS WE CAN TAKE FROM BEYONCÉ’S LEMONADE

SISTERHOOD: I loved the symbolism of the women featuring throughout Lemonade. It reminds us that as a company of women, we can do anything. We can lift one another up, we can encourage and strengthen each other, and together we are stronger.

LOVE AND FORGIVENESS: Choosing to forgive and love a partner no matter what takes a lot of patience and grace, which is not always easy! It may require a constant choosing to move forward, to hope, to believe in, restore trust, and to love.

CREATIVE EXPRESSION: As creatives we tend to draw on our own experiences as we create and express ourselves. When we do, our stories, our creative expression, forms a connection and bond with receivers. It may make others feel understood, and it may encourage hope or inspire creatively.

But, how much is too much? I constantly ask myself this when expressing myself creatively. Why? Because whilst I’m drawing on personal experiences while creating, I do not want to hurt or embarrass those that were part of that particular experience.

Therefore, I use a bit of wisdom whilst creating. I ask myself: “If roles were reversed, would I feel comfortable with them sharing personal information about me publicly?” Pausing and asking myself that question helps me to navigate and make wise creative decisions. Sometimes I ask the person before sharing creatively and make them part of the creative process as a means of honouring and respecting them. Because just as much as it’s my story, it’s their story too.

Mother’s Day blues

Over the weekend we celebrated Mother’s Day. During this time you couldn’t help but notice it everywhere – from the social media posts to the advertising and store promotions.

I love celebrating special days like these, and I normally get wrapped up in them. But this year I couldn’t stop thinking about others whose moms maybe weren’t around, and moms whose children were no longer with them.

I kept wondering what they must be feeling during this time: Do they feel a loss in their hearts? Do they have any regrets? Are they still hurting? Do they feel lonely? Are they okay?

My mom is still alive, and my son is still with me. So I couldn’t even begin to imagine what it would be like to not have my mom and son with me. Although I can’t relate, I do still feel this conscious weight on my heart of the longing that they must have for one last hug or one last conversation.

This got me thinking:

Cherish those that are still here, and make time to connect with them and build long lasting memories with them.

Reach out to those who have lost a mom or a child, and let them know that you are thinking of them.

Be a mom; be a sibling; be a child; be a friend to those who are in need or feel lonely after losing those relationships. Never underestimate the value and significance that those relationships place on others, including yourself.

If you are missing a loved one during this time, or in everyday life, just know that you do not have to carry your grief and pain alone. You can lean on God, and He will walk with you and help you. His love and His grace will cover and carry you. All we need to do is reach out to Him, and He will respond!

Family values: 7 steps to a flourishing family

Family values: 7 steps to a flourishing family

How do we nurture and instil healthy family values whilst moving in a fast-paced, ever evolving world? Before we unpack that question, maybe we need to ask ourselves: “Why is it so important to place value on family members?” Well, the simple truth is that if we don’t make the time to place value on one another, our family dynamics would fall apart quite easily.

THE IMPORTANCE OF PLACING VALUE ON FAMILY MEMBERS

When we place value on one another as family members, we encourage a deep level of respect and love for one another, which in turn encourages and builds trust. It also builds a sense of security and confidence within one another.

Placing value on one another makes others feel significant, loved, and important. When people feel loved and valued, they start to flourish.

When we instil a sense of value in our children, they feel safe and confident as individuals. They will also grow up understanding their worth.

HOW DO WE CREATE HEALTHY FAMILY VALUES?

There are many ways in which we can create moments within our family dynamics that can nurture a healthy and loving environment in which all members flourish. This may look different for everyone, as each family dynamic is unique and different.

1. SWITCH IT OFF

We live mostly online, on our phones, reading and responding to emails or text messages, or maybe we just get caught up with social media. Or maybe we choose to “switch off” by switching on the TV. When the children are awake, especially in the evenings, we need to be mindful that those moments with them mean the world to them. Messages, emails, and social media can wait. Switch off the noise and focus on your family. Be present emotionally and mentally with your family – life is far too short and unpredictable to waste it by being distracted.

To be in your children’s memories tomorrow, you have to be in their lives today.

2. SPEAK OPENLY AND HONESTLY

I think it’s so important to clear the air, especially if something is bothering you. If we don’t communicate what we feel – even if it feels small and silly – those feelings start to build and fester, and they become unhealthy. Families should encourage a loving and open level of conversation amongst family members. This means we need to let others speak, and not dismiss them and cut them off whilst they are talking. We need to listen to what they are saying, and not get defensive and overreact emotionally. We need to acknowledge what others are feeling, and respect their views and thoughts.

3. LISTEN

Listen closely to your family members. Listen and look out for things that may seem small, or may seem hidden. Listen with intent; listen to one another as a means of learning and delving into the very soul of each family member. Through active listening you open the doors of responding and loving with more clarity.

Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter what. If you don’t listen eagerly to the little stuff when they are little, they won’t tell you the big stuff when they are big, because to them all it has always been big stuff. – Catherine M. Wallace

4. FORGIVE QUICKLY

We tend to forget that people are, well… people, and like most people, people will make mistakes, fail, and fall short. We need to always show forgiveness, compassion, grace, and mercy, especially towards family members. Yes, there are consequences for our actions and firm conversations and corrections are needed. However, I believe that when children are truly remorseful, there is no need to rub it into their faces and hold it over them. If we don’t teach them by showing them forgiveness, they themselves will never know how to forgive, and they will suffer in the guilt and shame of their mistakes.

Be completely humble and gentle, be patient , bearing with one another in love. – Ephesians 4:2

5. ENCOURAGE

I believe that when we encourage one another, we are not only instilling courage, but we are refining and nurturing confidence within others. Encouraging family members could mean saying well done on overcoming something that was challenging for them; it could mean acknowledging when they are working hard at something; or praising them whilst they are exploring things that they are passionate about. Encouraging the character of a person affirms them as a person. I love seeing my son light up whenever I encourage him.

There needs to be more emphasis on what a child can do, instead of what he cannot do.

The way we talk to our children, becomes their inner voice. – Peggy O’Mara

6. HAVE FUN

Having fun and laughing together always encourages an atmosphere of unity. It’s like medicine for the soul – it makes you feel less stressed! Trust me, try it out and see for yourself!

7. CREATE MOMENTS

Create moments with your loved ones that are unique and special. Maybe your children love doing specific hobbies, and maybe it would mean the world to them if you joined in on the action. Being a part of their world by actively taking part and showing interest in them shapes their world and affirms their self-esteem and value. Children won’t remember all the times you worked very hard; they will always remember how you made them feel. Look for those little moments where you make one another come alive!

Today’s little moments, become tomorrow’s precious memories.

I don’t know about you, but I am determined to encourage a strong family dynamic that can embrace every season of life with joy and with confidence knowing that they are loved and valued. Every day is a new day to press the refresh button, and find ways to breathe fresh life over our situations and seasons!

Why your words can change your life

Isn’t it amazing that the words we choose to speak on a day-to-day basis have the power to encourage, to build, and to propel us and others to move forward with confidence? Yet on other days, our tongues have the power to negatively shape our thoughts and emotions , which in turn affects our day-to-day behaviour.

Therefore, we need to be conscious of the words that we choose to dwell and speak on. Easier said than done, right? Especially when someone has hurt you. Often, we tend to dwell on the things that others have said or have done to us. We relive those moments in our minds, and then vent constantly to others about it as a means of “gaining perspective”. However, if we keep talking about it, we keep reliving it, which in turn means we are not moving past it.

MOVING PAST NEGATIVE WORDS

God wants us to live a life that is light and full of His goodness, not one that leaves us feeling heavy and oppressed. We all have default settings that we retreat into as a means of dealing with issues and protecting ourselves. Some of our default settings can cause more harm than good. If we want to grow and move forward from hurt, we need to rewire the way we think and speak.

1. ACKNOWLEDGE THE HURT

Often we react out of what we feel. Sometimes we can react negatively as a means of justifying our pain. At other times we pretend like the pain isn’t there, and we become resentful and suffer in silence; or we may choose to behave in a passive-aggressive way towards others, which isn’t healthy for us in the long term. We need to address the matters of the heart by looking at it and by actively being aware of wanting to deal with the hurt.

2. CHOOSE TO FORGIVE

Forgiveness is an ongoing decision – it’s something we need to be conscious of doing. Choosing to forgive allows us to heal by letting the offence go, which in turns frees us from any pain or disappointment. Choosing to forgive isn’t always easy; we need God’s grace to help us and we need His wisdom when moving forward from the hurt and from the offender.

3. DWELL ON

What we think, we feel; what we feel, we speak of. Which in turn influences our emotions and behaviour. Sometimes, we need to pause for a second, and really reflect on what it is we focus and dwell on. We need to ask ourselves if what we are thinking on is going to negatively or positively influence us.

4. SPEAK GOODNESS

Let’s be honest, it is so hard to actively choose to speak kindly of others, especially if they have hurt us directly or indirectly. It’s also hard to speak life over what feels like a dark season to us. We all know that our words hold weight and power and can define how we live our day-to-day. Therefore if we speak negatively all the time, whether it’s about others or about our current situations, it will negatively impact our moods. If we are conscious about actively speaking words that speak of hope, love, and courage, our thoughts and emotional behaviour will change.

5. ASK YOURSELF

We live in a day and age where everyone is vocal about everything (especially online). Everyone has an opinion, and often it’s a negative one. We may even find ourselves in conversations where we are talking without realising the weight and impact of our words.

I once read this quote that says ;

“The words of the tongue, should have three gatekeepers:
Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?”

Sometimes, we need to filter our words and conversations before we speak. Our words have the power of life or death, and our words can be used as a means of encouraging and empowering. Let’s be conscious of choosing our words wisely. If this post spoke to you and you would like to know more, then may I encourage you to click on the link below.
