How can you make a significant impact on your wealth? By stepping out of your comfort zone and into The Barrier Zone! Just stepping out of your comfort zone is not enough. We can all give examples where we've been in uncomfortable situations and then have been quite happy going back to our comfort zones. But these situations didn't have a significant impact on our wealth. You need to step into the barrier zone to make money and increase your wealth.
The Barrier Zone is where you put all the things that are BOTH uncomfortable to you AND that hold you back. That's The Barrier Zone. Items that are in The Barrier Zone can be there for a number of reasons: you might not know how to do something; you might have been told that you're not good at it; or you may believe you require additional experience or knowledge. A few examples that might fall into each of the three zones are listed below.
Items within The Comfort Zone might have the following in it: My home, my spouse, my normal routine, my job, and my friends.
Outside The Comfort Zone may have: Meeting someone new, going to a new place, not a normal routine, starting a new job, and learning a new skill.
Examples of items found in The Barrier Zone could be investing in the stock market, buying my first house, and starting my own business.
What's in your Barrier Zone? First, take the time to list 1-3 items that you really wish you could accomplish or know you should achieve to make money and become wealthy. The next step is to discuss one of the items on your list with a friend, a spouse, or relative and ask them for their input on how to successfully complete that item? This will provide you with a new prospective, impart support, and add momentum to completing this task. Now, determine what the first step is to get the barrier list item completed. Sign up for that class! Make that phone call! Talk with an expert! Concentrate on the first step, the other steps will come later. Commit to following through on just that one step because that very first step is the hardest. Lastly, share with your friend or spouse success and your progress in becoming wealthy. Celebrating your success with others will keep you energized and motivated.
It's an amazingly liberating experience when you successfully conquer and accomplish one of the items from your Barrier Zone to move your money making abilities forward. You'll feel GREAT! You will ask yourself why you did not try to attempt it sooner. You will eagerly want to tackle the next item on your Barrier Zone list.
