Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is human nature to try to make things easier, more routine or, as the book title suggests, more comfortable. We see comfort as a good thing, and in and of itself, it is. However, when we become comfortable with what seems to be good enough, we lose the drive that leaders want in individuals. There is no more passion, motivation, excitement, ownership, accountability or initiative. The fact is, we become dormant and find ourselves simply going through the motions of life, in our careers, families and personal life. We begin to complain that it is the fault of others around us-my job, my boss, my spouse, my kids, my friends-when the reality is that we have simply stepped squarely into the trap of complacency. This book addresses seven key areas to help free you from complacency and challenge you to rekindle your passion and desire for success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is all about comfort zones. All of us are somehow trapped in their comfort zone, we are trying to leave that zone or trying to stay in that zone. According to psychology; A comfort zone is a psychological state in which things feel familiar to a person and they are at ease and in control of their environment, experiencing low levels of anxiety and stress. Some will say a comfort zone is bad as it will make you complacent and you won't learn new skills while some will say that being in a comfort zone will make you confident and reduce anxiety. Both might be right but we are not here to pass a judgmental statement. This anthology comprises twelve authors around the globe with their different experience and different thoughts yet united under the same theme. Every writer is unique in itself and their different views on comfort zones. This anthology is a combination of prose, poetry, sci-fi and short stories. And we are presenting their sentiments in front of you in the form of a book that you are holding in your hands. This book is unique in the way that all the thoughts and emotions of co-authors are penned down in a very alluring manner. Little message for readers; " The only important thing in the book is the meaning that it has for you". W. Somerset Maughamome.

Download or read book Beyond Your Comfort Zones written by Calvin Ellison and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's plan for all of those who choose to follow Him is a life of joy and abundance. However, while God intended us to live a life of health, harmony and happiness, most live a life of stress, struggle and strife. The main problem most people have in realizing all that God has for them is not merely unbelief; it is the inability to escape their "Comfort Zones." Comfort Zones can prevent people from reaching total joy and success in many areas of their lives such as in marriage, relationships with their children and families, on the job, in business, and with their finances. In fact, Comfort Zones prevent people from enjoying a full relationship with God, as they also hinder worship, prayer and faith. You cannot fully receive your blessings until you have stepped out of your Comfort Zones. "Beyond Your Comfort Zones: How to Realize Your Full Potential," by Dr. Calvin Elision (Dr. E.) will take you on a methodical journey from fear to freedom and position you to be able to better receive from God. The 12 Disciples suffered from major Comfort Zone issues as did Abraham. However, they moved beyond those mental barriers and realized all that God had intended for them, and so can you. Beyond Your Comfort Zones will take you step-by-step to detect and recognize Comfort Zones that exist in areas you may not have thought of before and then it will show you exactly how to move beyond them. Backed by dozens of scriptural references, Dr. E points out that the solutions to move beyond Comfort Zones and receive your blessings are all a part of God's Word. However, Dr. E makes it so clear and plain that you will immediately be able to relate Biblical understanding to your daily life. After reading, "Beyond Your Comfort Zones: How to Realize Your Full Potential," you will have significantly grown and stepped out of your Comfort Zones into the great unknown. You will come away from this book with a renewed understanding and appreciation for the Word of God, a heightened sense of love and forgiveness, and the knowledge of how to turn imagination into manifestation.

Here is the story of the first remarkable stage of the expedition. Just two weeks into the ride the September 11th attacks changed everything.
