ARE YOU PLAYING IT TOO SAFE?
DO YOU NEVER STEP OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE?
Guess what? Playing it safe is the worst way to live life. No two ways about it.
Playing it safe means you’re missing out on so many of the great things life has to offer.
Something as simple as ordering food for example. If you always order the same thing everytime how will you know if you like something if you don’t try it? For years now, the leading restaurant in the country has been ‘The Fat Duck’ in Bray run by Heston Blumenthal. One of the few 3 Michelin Star restaurants in the country and this is nothing if not adventurous. ‘Snail Porridge’ is one of the signature dishes and this will require someone with an open mind to try it but those that do say it tastes sublime. (hence it has gained the highest Michelin Star Rating it’s possible to get)
When you avoid all risks, you miss out on some of the experiences that could literally change your life for the better.
Life is a ‘smorgasboard of opportunity’. An almost limitless number of things to try and things to learn.
Playing it safe and avoiding risks can often feel like the most logical and comfortable option. (For example, this way, you can avoid ‘snail porridge’) - After all, taking risks can be intimidating and uncertain, leading to potential failures and setbacks. Failures and setbacks to those who succeed in life are all necessary parts of the process that eventually leads to success. Thomas Edison said "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." and then, finally he invented the light bulb! Few people reach greatness in life without some failures along the way.
There are many advantages to taking risks that can lead to personal and professional growth and success.
One of the most significant advantages of taking risks is the potential for great rewards. Whether it's starting a new business, pursuing a passion project, or making a career change, taking a risk can lead to significant personal and professional growth.
When we step outside of our comfort zone and take a chance, we open ourselves up to new opportunities and experiences that can lead to incredible success.
Taking risks can also lead to increased confidence and resilience.
When we face and overcome challenges, we build our confidence and develop a sense of resilience that can help us tackle future obstacles with greater ease. This resilience can also help us adapt to change and uncertainty, which is an essential skill in today's rapidly evolving world.
Another advantage of taking risks is the potential for learning and growth. When we take on new challenges and experiences, we are forced to learn and develop new skills and knowledge. This can help us grow as individuals and professionals, making us more well-rounded and capable of taking on future challenges.
However, it's important to note that not all risks are created equal. It's essential to take calculated risks that are backed by research and careful consideration. This can help minimize potential negative consequences and maximize the potential for success.
The worst that could happen is you learn from it and grow. But the best that could happen... well that's where the real magic happens, its transcendent!
We hear this day in and out from out clients that follow through with their shoot, they overcome that initial urge to cancel and they break through that barrier of fear. It's only when you take risks that you truly see what you're capable of.
If course it’s scary for you to wear next to nothing in front of almost total strangers and it can feel way outside your personal comfort zone, but when you see the results, you’ll feel so much more body confident and good about yourself you’ll not want the experience to end. (You can see just how good everyone feels after their session by reading what they thought on our clients page )
Remember that nothing great ever happens inside your comfort zone.
The next time you're faced with an opportunity that makes you a little bit nervous, don't back down. Embrace it! You might not always succeed, but that's not the point. The point is to always be pushing yourself, taking chances, and living life to the fullest.
That's how you truly win at life.
No one gets out of this thing alive and the last thing you want is to be in your last days wishing you had lived.
