The Comfort Zone is Where Dreams Go To Die

The Comfort Zone. It’s a place where ambition goes to retire. Where yesterday’s dream dissolves into the world of undiscovered possibilities. Where leaders become followers and the passionate become passive. There is no light at the end of the Comfort Zones tunnel. Just a dim haze of the unmanifested. The Comfort Zone is a sly and convincing place; often the dream doesn’t even realize it has stopped there. There's a warmth of security that’s abundant and wonderful. It always feels like it is where the dream is meant to be. Often the dream feels like it is still moving forward, toward something, but there is no movement in the Comfort Zone. Only the perception of movement. It feels like progress is being made, but it's really just the mundane. The nothingness of something that doesn’t really matter. In the Comfort Zone, it goes by the name of irrelevance. Irrelevance has a way of encompassing the dream in busy work. Multitasking, dabbling in, working on, staying busy; doing things that have no impact on the dreams ambition or growth. But it keeps the dream feeling like its actions have an impact. It is irrelevance trickery. Irrelevance is the master in this type of trickery and has fooled many a dream with one swift wave of its magic wand. The dream never planned to take up residence here. It was never on the list of destination or outcomes. The dream was once full of hope and potential. But now it unwillingly finds itself stuck in a place with no foreseeable future. The dream that once was is now forgotten. The light that once had a brilliant glare barely flickers. The beams of bright ideas have vanished into the vortex of busy work. And as the dreams light dims and the hope of yesterday fades, the Comfort Zones mighty foe will often appear. This mighty foe is the ultimate hero. The blinding light that shines through all depths of darkness. The one who can resurrect dreams that have long been dead and buried deep in the memory of what could have been. This mighty foe goes by the name of Awareness. It has been said that, for those who are aware, will see their surrounding are not of ambition, hope, or growth. And they will awaken their Invincible Passion- - and leave this dark and dreary place immediately. For their beautiful dreams will not die in this god forsake Comfort Zone. Their dreams will live forever in the Triumph of Success.
