Trina Hall Lifting You Up Higher and Higher
Expand yourself and you will live an extraordinary life. How many of you are wondering if there is more to your life? Do you feel stuck or as if you are doing the same thing day in and day out? We have all come into this world with a purpose. You may spend many years trying to figure out what this purpose is. I found the best way is to look at your passions and natural talents. Once those are figured out, your job is to share these gifts with the world. How exciting would it be to live each day being you and doing what you love?
There is only one you. You were put here specifically with unique gifts that only you can offer. Do not deprive the world from your talents. Who knows who you can impact or help? Knowing this, should give you the added incentive to expand. Become the largest and best version of yourself.
I am here to give you that little push. If you are playing it safe and you are feeling comfortable, you are not growing. . The comedian, George Carlin has a great quote “Most people work just hard enough to not get fired and get paid just enough money to not quit”. I realized that even playing it safe, isn’t safe anymore. I have seen it many times. People can be unhappy working the same job, but it feels safe and secure. Then 20 years later, they get let go or the company has been bought out.

THIS IS WHERE THE FUN BEGINS…
INVEST IN YOURSELF
Invest time and effort into yourself. Take a course or workshop that can help improve your life. Spend time doing and mastering what you love. You will not regret it. I understand that this is really hard for those of you whom have spent the majority of your life sacrificing and trying to please others. Try to consciously make this effort.
EXPAND YOURSELF BEYOND YOUR COMFORT ZONE
Neale Walsh states that life begins beyond your comfort zone. You need to do things that you have never done before, if you want to change your life. This is when your excitement will start. You will want to share the details with your friends of all the exciting, new things that you are doing.
OPEN YOUR MIND
Do not be afraid to open up to new possibilities or different approaches.
PUSH/CHALLENGE YOURSELF
When you keep pushing yourself, it will prove to you what you are capable of.
WHAT WE FOCUS ON EXPANDS
You build up energy and momentum towards the things you focus on. If you want something in your life to continue to expand, then focus on it.
As far as I am concerned, if you are taking a risk on yourself, it is not a risk. So, expand yourself. Live beyond your walls, fears and comfort zones. Only you know what is best for you. It feels exhilarating to push through your comfort zone and challenge yourself. You will never know what you are capable of, until you try.
It can be very difficult to expand and leave the comfort zone!! What will happen, if I don’t succeed?? In my career, I have seen so many, who feel the only option is not to leave the “comfort zone”. Many “teachers” are caught in this zone!! If you were able to get where you are now, you must have the “goods” to further!! Here is were good counselling and support will be necessary!!!!!
Hi Don,
The fear of failure is a huge reason why people find it difficult to leave their comfort zone. Many people are caught up in old beliefs and limit themselves into living their life with passion. Some people are content with keeping things safe and the same. Everyone is different. For those who want to grow and expand…the only way is to leave your comfort zone and push yourself beyond limits. Sometimes there is lack of support. It is most important that one has an unwavering belief in themselves!
Thank you Trina… you certainly have given LOTS of food for thought… and inspiration!!!
