If you are procrastinating, or wondering whether trying is worth it, take two minutes to consider what you will find on the other side of your comfort zone.

1. Your perspective of life and challenges is reshaped. Obstacles become less scary, and life becomes more interesting.
   
   
2. You are amazed at the extent of your efforts. In fact, your goal was a life-long ambition, and you can’t believe you actually achieved it.
   
   
3. You realize you have abilities you did not expect and start thinking of other skills you want to develop.
   
   
4. You are curious how far you can go. It seems that if you managed to fulfil this aspiration, you are able to accomplish even more.
   
   
5. You lived an amazing experience that taught you so much about yourself and the importance of perseverance.
   
   
6. You never want to go back and meet your older version again. You find strength where you are right now, after stepping out of your comfort zone. 
   
   
7. You want to protect your achievement at all costs. It was challenging for you to stay focused and reach this goal.
   
   
8. You start encouraging others to push their own limits. If you did it, they can do it too.
   
   
9. You recognize you have built confidence. Growth requires courage to face the challenges standing in the way of the starting line.
