Your Comfort Zone is KILLING YOU - So Bury It!

The Men of My Unit: 3rd Battalion 5th Marines. Semper Fi!

Living UNCOMFORTABLE.

Sleeping in fox holes... in the middle of a combat zone.

In combat there are only two ways to get home:

1. You rely on your MINDset and your skills and training.

2. You share your WHY with your brothers.
You share your pictures of family, sweetheart,
babies... your home town... your wheels.

You share your "future" reality: the car you'll buy,
the boat, the pop warner football team you'll coach...
The vacation you'll take... and so many other future
dreams you'll experience.

You share your dream.

As a leader in combat you help draw out
the dreams of the men in your unit...

And you help edify their dreams until they
are LARGER THAN LIFE itself and you build
a MASSIVE BONFIRE inside your men's hearts
to GET BACK HOME... to GET THAT DREAM.

And by sharing and drawing out our dreams,
we end up building a WHITE HOT BURNING
DESIRE to see our men get home so they
can get THEIR dreams accomplished.

And we then end up fighting for each other.
And that creates a BOND that never dies.

Doing ALL OF THAT is uncomfortable.

Society does not teach that.

It's uncomfortable to speak of dreams and share
them with other people... it's easier to stay
inside a box you've been conditioned to think
is "normal" and to keep yourself isolated.

But to accomplish anything LARGE and SIGNIFICANT,
you're going to have to help a LOT of other people to
accomplish their goals and dreams first.

Victory lies outside our comfort zones.
People are attracted to people who stretch
outside comfort zones.

You CAN do anything you set your mind to do.

Today, find something outside your comfort zone
(anything) and stretch.... Find or create a little VICTORY
today outside the box... it's infectious.

Whatever you're trying to do or learn today can't be as
uncomfortable as living in a fox hole in the middle of
a combat zone, right?

And most of those Men are between 18 and 23 years old.

BURY YOUR COMFORT ZONE!

Always Onward,
