    About this ebook

    If you’re feeling frustrated with your life, you probably have relinquished your freedom to consciously create your own life experiences, the very things that ultimately bring you joy. Often a frustrated life means you’ve chosen the path of least resistance. Effectively, you’re stuck. To move forward, you have to get ‘unstuck’.

    If you are ‘normal’, you have a comfort zone, generally considered a mental rather than a physical space. As you move towards your goals, your comfort zone will challenge you every step of the way. Humans are creatures of habit, but achieving your goals demands that you become more than you are now. This requires you to push and expand the boundary of your comfort zone.

    If you just wish and passively wait, your goals and dreams will fail to materialise.

    This book shows you how to break out of your 'Comfort Zone', develop a success mindset and how to finally live a fulfilling life.

      The Comfort Zone - Virend Singh

      1.0 Introduction

      Men [and women] are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are not willing to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound.

      ~ James Allen

      Do you want to be happier, more prosperous, experience more meaning and satisfaction, and pursue the things you like in life? Of course you do. Such a quest requires serious change in a person’s life, and that change has to come from within. This is what self-improvement is all about — being willing to improve oneself.

      Most people want an enriched and fulfilling life, but they are not willing to improve themselves. To use an analogy: they want to build skyscrapers, but avoid putting the proper foundations in place first. Instead, they conform to social norms; they look for the quick and easy options and high-speed elevators to success. Unfortunately, such things don’t exist. It’s thinking outside the box and stepping beyond social norms that make for new discoveries and progress.

      Life is growth, and growth demands change. Change can be painful yet resisting change is resisting growth. Resisting growth denies you success. Success demands a willingness to make sacrifices, face challenges and learn from every experience. Inevitably, the bigger your desired outcome, the more you must grow.

      Enlightened Thought:

      Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger… for the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and griefs we endure help us in our marching onward.

      ~ Henry Ford

      2.0 Develop a Success Mindset

      The mindset of successful people is distinctly unlike the rest. Successful people think and act differently. They consistently defy conformity, doing things that others WILL NOT do so that they can achieve results that others BELIEVE they cannot. What seems like the right thing to do for most people is actually not the norm for the 1% at the top. To be the best, it is imperative to go against the grain of conventional wisdom.

      To create a new reality, reinvent yourself. It’s not possible to change your current life with the same thinking that created it. You might be familiar with Einstein’s famous quote:

      We cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.

      Eradicate the mindset that created your present circumstance to open the way for a success mindset. Success in life requires a single shift in mindset, from a position of powerlessness to a position of true power.

      So how does one begin this shift?

      Change from…

      •Thinking lack and limited supply TO thinking abundance and unlimited supply

      •Short term, immediate gratification thinking TO long-term, delayed- gratification thinking

      •Win-lose thinking TO win-win thinking

      •Security thinking TO opportunity thinking

      •Survival consciousness TO prosperity consciousness

      •Competing and cloning TO collaborating and creating

      •Focusing on getting TO focusing on giving

      •Making an impression TO making a difference.

      Throughout history, the strong-willed have constantly tried to dominate, imposing their practised ways upon others, especially their beliefs about life and how it should be lived. Those who are submissive are taught to fit in; to adapt; to conform; to go along to get along. It may seem easier to adapt to their ideas of what is best for you rather than
