To stretch out of our comfort zone is something that us X-trainers do naturally. Everyday we live in our stretch zone.

A ship in the harbor is safe, but that's not what ships are for :)

Yesterday we talked about stretching our comfort zone and being more and more comfortable staying there. It was a concept that really hit my heart because i haven't been stretching as much as i should be for being a X-trainer. I have had so many opportunities fly past me because i refused to step into my stretch zone. Unfortunately it hurts me in the end.

I decided to wear a rubber band on my wrist to remind myself to stretch myself one time everyday. It's almost like my new year's resolution to do one thing everyday that scares me. So this is a good start. Why wait for 2012 and start doing it now? Perfect idea :)


On another note. Have you ever felt super alone that it almost hurts you? I have been feeling so alone the last 2 weeks that it is just killing me. Grego works constantly, I work a completely different schedule than him, I set boundaries with friends who can not accept them so they have decided to not support me in that so i'm down to just a handful (not a big deal), and my family is also busy. This Christmas, i felt more alone than any other Christmas before. It was awful. When I feel super alone, I crawl in my shell (my bed haha) and will stay there forever unless something calls for me to get up. Otherwise i will stay there and just sleep till next month. It's really not a good quality. So this stretch thing was a good thing is really what i'm getting at in a nut shell. :)
