I hated small spaces, sweat, the smell of sweat, crowded rooms etc. Bikram has thought me so much!Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05377450076395415565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-87799877894824269222014-07-02T13:07:02.514-04:002014-07-02T13:07:02.514-04:00Loved this post!

You're so right!<br />I used to be really scared of swimming (oh well, not scared per se, I just dreaded it because it seemed so dull to me), until I gave it a go and now it's one of my favorite exercises ever!<br />I loved that sushi rule too ;)Consuelo - Honey & Figshttp://honeyandfigskitchen.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-14475653659791702172014-06-30T08:44:01.475-04:002014-06-30T08:44:01.475-04:00You are totally right, Mike!

I think that little thing when she was 3 pervaded alot of areas of her life, and she sometimes lectures me on "my comort zone" these days - a story for another time!<br />I said it before, but I will say it again - AWESOME post!Shashi @ Runnin Srilankanhttp://runninsrilankan.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-56810814362728539822014-06-29T20:08:10.435-04:002014-06-29T20:08:10.435-04:00At age 26 I came to the US for the first time - sp...At age 26 I came to the US for the first time - speaking almost no English - and lived in California for three years. Back to Brazil, a divorce, and I left all alone to France leaving my beautiful home behind, only two suitcases. Toughest year of my life, loneliness, sadness... but it took me where I am now, happy happy happy, satisfied with my life in all aspects, professional, personal... <br /><br />you hit the nail on the head, stepping out of the comfort zone is the best move!SallyBRhttp://bewitchingkitchen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-74773517895717521372014-06-29T19:33:19.035-04:002014-06-29T19:33:19.035-04:00You are right that stepping out of your comfort zo...You are right that stepping out of your comfort zone can bring about wonderful things in your life. Getting married (at age 63) did that for me, all the travel we do has helped me grow, and then at age 67 I learned how to scramble around on big rocks at our local state park, as part of our training to become volunteer tour guides. It's amazing how something like that, for someone like me who has never been at all athletic, changes my confidence level and my outlook on life. Thank you for encouraging us in this direction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-73491510932171013952014-06-29T19:03:17.093-04:002014-06-29T19:03:17.093-04:00Such an interesting read.
