used to have a comfort zone where I knew I wouldn’t fail. 
The same four walls and busywork were really more like jail. 
I longed so much to do the things I’d never done before, 
But stayed inside my comfort zone and paced the same old floor. 

I said it didn’t matter that I wasn’t doing much. 
I said I didn’t care for things like commission checks and such. 
I claimed to be so busy with the things inside the zone, 
But deep inside I longed for something special of my own. 

I couldn’t let my life go by just watching others win. 
I held my breath; I stepped outside and let the change begin. 
I took a step and with new strength I’d never felt before, 
I kissed my comfort zone goodbye and closed and locked the door. 

If you’re in a comfort zone, afraid to venture out, 
Remember that all winners were at one time filled with doubt. 
A step or two and words of praise can make your dreams come true. 
Reach for your future with a smile; success is there for you!
