We all have these, comfort zones. Sometimes it refers to the physical space that we prefer to keep between us and another body. Sometimes it refers to a more mental issue, something that is hard for us to come out of...our comfort zone. In the past I have had a tendancy to remain in my comfort zone, no matter where that was. I hardly ever ventured out of my comfort zone. My comfort zone, one of them anyway, was emotional repression. I would say everything was fine, or that no I was not mad, or upset, just to keep the peace. I would agree with someone even if I did not in some cases, just because I knew I could not make them see my point of view. I resided in the gray area. I was straddling the fence so much I could have been bow-legged.
A few years ago this all changed. I began to gain self-confidence. I began to regain my faith in myself. I began to value my opinion again. I truly realized that we cannot expect anyone in life to treat us any better than we treat ourselves.
My next hurdle is my indecisiveness...lol. Honestly, a lot of times, I really don't have a preference for where to go to eat, or what to do. I am really open to many different options, and when presented with actual options I am good at picking one. It is just when I am left to my own devices that I become choice-challenged...lol.
