Why is it that before we get out of the comfort zone, we feel scared, but when we step out of it, we feel like a bird in the sky?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Once we do it we are surprised we were even scared and we feel so much more confident.

So, people I got two jobs, one on Shenzhen one in Shanghai and the employer that ghosted me came back too. That makes 3. And plus got offered a modeling job today. What a nice day

It's a lot easier the younger you are... I have stepped out of it serval times myself. Relationship wise, whenever I felt that hesitation, it never worked out for me.

[Friendlybro79]

I think it's a level of self preservation. If you feel nervous you act cautious. Then when you get through the things that made you feel that way... You feel like you accomplished something.

Congratulations on all of the job offers. Sounds like a great day indeed.

Really depends on what im doing. I feel that “free as a bird” thing very rarely. I can only think of 2 things outside of my comfortzone that i didn't regret. The rest i was uncomfortable before, during, and after

[Sparkie460]

Because you are comfortable and you are afraid of changes. Once you realize it's not that bad, you accept it until you take the challenge again

[Sparkie460]

You really scored today. Now if only you can clone yourself you'd be set

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

hahaha 😅 I wish I could.

[Sparkie460]

Congratulations. Do you know which one you'll take

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Thank you. Shanghai salary is 3k higher than Shenzhen. Both of them are great cities, but I lean towards Shanghai because I already live here, i live on another end of Shanghai and it will be hard to take all my belongings but Shenzhen is sooo far, totally another part of China l. I feel sad to turn them down because they have been waiting for me and they have huge connections in government and my work visa will be issued as a first priority among other foreigners but they are far and also offer me 3K less salary than in China.

I prefer that employer who ghosted me in the past, the city is Suzhou, 10 million city, smaller than Shanghai but richer than Shanghai and the job is very prestigious. But I am not sure they can handle my visa on time. Shenzhen and Shanghai jobs are really willing to help as soon as possible.

[Sparkie460]

Well I wish you the best of luck in your new job

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[Sparkie460]

You're welcome

We step out of the comfort zone to discover gravity, but then soon realize we can turn gravity on and off as needed... and never fall unless we want to.

[msc545]

Congratulations on your jobs!

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Thank you ☺️😇

[KingOfMe1]

Because your conditioning isn't in harmony with what you're thinking about doing.

[Cb142]

i think we think stuff is gonna be worse then what it truly is and when we do step out and see its not so bad we just feel that way

[justabuddy]

Because our brain always believes the worst case scenario will happen. It's usually never that bad.

[DizzyDesii]

You gotta be optimistic. I hate change but i go into things hoping for the best outcome. Thinking the worst is just jinxing yourself

[justabuddy]

Agreed.
