Life begins at end of your comfort zone

(By  Aadesh Sharma)

There are two types of people in our world when it comes to a comfort zone. Some live in a comfort zone where they feel safe. Some reach outside their comfort zone. I hope to explain while stepping outside one’s comfort zone can be very beneficial and an attractive option. To start let’s talk about what the comfort zone looks like. A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there, except laziness, anxiety, and fears. Imagine something you do every day or all the time, like brushing your teeth, watching TV, reading news, or cooking breakfast. Daily activities that you’re used to won’t make you feel uneasy, uncomfortable, or anxious. Why? They belong to your comfort zone. For us, familiarity is not just comfortable but seems to be safe. That’s why we are more prone not to move out of our comfort zone.

Now imagine, you need to stop smoking or eat less chocolate or change your lifestyle. How do you feel about it? Not quite at ease, right?


I will say a comfort zone is needed in moderation, but the main thing is to not get caught in the quicksand of the comfort zone. It’s easy to do nothing, but nothing takes you anywhere.

We don’t want to lose our sense of self and what we enjoy in life. It is easy to get roped into the daily tasks of life. Wake up, go to work, pick the kids up from school, make dinner, go to the gym, go to sleep. Then do it all over again. It’s easy to get caught in this schedule and forget about yourself and what you want! Embracing change and even going out and searching down change can help keep life interesting and fun.


Live your life to the fullest. Reach outside the box and explore things you don’t think you're capable of doing/accomplishing. Look at how much this world has accomplished. All these accomplishments occurred with people stepping outside their comfort zones.

Don’t let life pass you by! Don’t look back in 20 years and say I should have done this, I should have done that! If you are in a current situation and see an opportunity you’re interested in, ask yourself how I can make this happen and figure it out!


Who do you want to be: a risk-taker or a comfort seeker?

 

If you were on your death bed looking back at your life, who would you want to see more—a person who took risks or one who sought comfort?

Looking back at my life, every time I worked through my fears, I took a giant leap in my spiritual journey. Living in three different countries required a lot of work, but it opened my eyes to endless opportunities. Moving from Atlanta to New York as empty nesters seemed like an insane decision, but it started my husband and me on an exciting adventure and brought new purpose to our lives. Leaving stable job years ago to create my Beacons of Change brand required a lot of trusts, but it also helped me to contribute to the world in a bigger way.

Why recycling should be necessary?

Why recycling should be necessary? ( by Neha Soni ) Why should we recycle? A question that is always around us but we fantastically ignore it. So why do we do that? Why don’t we recycle things or at least make some habits in our schools, colleges, or workplace that will segregate the recyclable products? The answer is simple- we are either not bothered or not have enough knowledge of the importance of recycling. Recycling is a process in which waste materials are converted into new materials and products. The new products which are formed are used, again get recycled and the cycle repeats. This is done to prevent excessive usage of raw materials and will help us in preserving the environment. Recycling is one of the main components of a waste management system and is the third component of the “Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle" waste motto. Thus, recycling aims at environmental sustainability by substituting staple inputs into recyclable waste outputs.   Products which can be recycled a

What is the role of organic farming in making future of Agriculture? ( by Neha Soni ) Agriculture is one of the leading sources of food within the World. Human has sacrificed its natural resources for economic development from the period of human civilization to the trendy world. Within the evolutionary period of agriculture, people used the practice of slash and burn agriculture, commonly called Jhum cultivation, where farmers cut down the trees of the forest and burn the plant remains. The ash is employed as a fertilizer and therefore the land is then used for farming or cattle grazing. After cultivation, the area is left for several years to permit its recovery. The farmers then advance to other areas and repeat the method. In earlier days, when Slash and Burn cultivation was in prevalence, enough time-gap was given specified that the land recovered from the effect of cultivation. With increasing population, and repeated cultivation, this recovery phase is completed away with, lea

            How to Stop Wasting Water? (By Sravani Binkam) Image By:- Shrut Kapadia Water covers about 71% of our earth that’s the reason why it’s so crucial to understanding and to change the climate. One of the most common ways in which people waste water by leaving the water running when brushing their teeth, shaving, showering, washing the dishes. Turn the tap off as soon as you start brushing, shaving, washing the dishes. For washing the dishes, we have one sink with clean water and one with soapy water. By using this tip, we can reduce water wastage. The average person wastes 30 glasses of water every day. Our toilet could be flushing away up to 5 gallons of water every time we flush. People tend to flush every time the toilet is used, which can waste hundreds of glasses a week. Using a pipe to wash the car can use up gallons of water. If we leave the hose running, then it can end up wasting almost 150 gallons of water. However, if we use a small bucket and sponge to wash the car
