Do you want a diamond?
Diamond is extremely expensive especially a big one with high number of carats. It is the same as life. If you want something big in your life, let say the Koh-I-Noor diamond, you need to learn to be comfortable in uncomfortable.
Your life is the real diamond, yet you didn't see it because of the comfort zone you're living in now. How do you define the comfort zone? Is it a zone where you should step out of it to gain more growth in life? Or is it a zone that you should expand it?
In the end all of us know that if we do something to this so called "Comfort Zone", we will experience a tremendous powerful moment where our "comfort" life is transforming into a magnificent brilliant life. Just like carbon transforms into pure bright diamond.
Here are three simple steps to turn your carbon life into brightly shining diamond:
1. Discover who you are.
The first step to be someone or to be anything is to discover who you really are. Discover what are your personalities and temperaments so that you able to solidly understand your strengths and weaknesses. Once you know those strengths and weaknesses, you need to learn how to use them in the correct occasions and at the correct time, so that you able to harness your maximum potentials.
Discover what are your personalities and temperaments...
2. Define your wants and directions.
Wants and directions are two things that are easy to say, yet hard to define. To know what you want actually it is quite simple.
Just close your eyes and listen to the whisper of your heart. Then, say to yourself "I will go and get it!". But, once you said that you will get an alarm from your brain "hold on ladies and gentlemen."
That is how you may know what you actually want in life or in your career. How? Your brain is like a security guard, once it heard about something or some actions that will put you in uncomfortable moment it will start to taser your whole body with its signal in order to stop it. Your wants or simply ambitions will always make you feel uncomfortable since it requires growth.
How about directions? In order to get the directions, you need to relate what have you discovered in step 1 with what you want. Your eyes will be wide open after that.
3. Take action and just do it!
This is the most difficult thing to do. Again, it is not because you cannot but you will try to make yourself can't.
Let's make it simple folks, JUST DO IT!
Do something to your "comfort zone". Only through that you will grow and your life will be at the Mountain of Light and will transform into the Diamond of Babur.
