You may think there is always something that stops you from being as wealthy, happy, loved, and successful as you really deserve to be, and it is not about being in the wrong place with the wrong people, not knowing how to change your situation, or not having enough money. Those are symptoms, and not the cause.

Circumstances, knowledge, skills, and all other factors can be changed. The one thing holding you back is you, namely your own frustration and self-doubt. Moreover, the thing holding it in place is your Comfort Zone. Designed to keep you doing familiar things, because new experiences make you feel unsafe, this zone is run by your subconscious mind.

Inside each of us, we have a subconscious creative mechanism that helps us obtain anything we truly desire. Once this mechanism is set in motion, synchronization, ideas, physical energy and emotional tenacity come into play. Your job is only to supply a goal, a dream, or a vision. After that, the subconscious creative mechanism supplies all the means necessary to bring it about. Supplying it with goals makes it instantly active.

Why do only few people truly succeed in life, even with all this going for us? It is because of the Comfort Zone. This mechanism slams the brakes when you try new things. It makes you feel uncomfortable when trying new things, until you just give in and return to your basic routine.
For instance, suppose improving your business skills would help your career, and you sign up for a class on public speaking. You decide that improving your communication skills will definitely make a difference. Once this new goal is set, your automatic creative mechanism will have you focusing on the material, and performing in class wills never be a problem. It will even help you find like-minded people to support your new venture.

At first, everything is going to seem great. Then, somewhere along the way, you notice that you feel uncomfortable. There will be days when you will not want to go to the classes. When you do go, you will start disliking people there. They will irritate you. You will feel high anxiety when it is your turn to speak.

All these new feelings are coming from your Comfort Zone. It is sounding the alarm. Most people find a good reason for their feelings, quit, and go back to their normal lifestyle, involving their usual activities. The Comfort Zone has done its job.
Thus, in order to succeed, people have to override the emotional charge of their Comfort Zone, and allow their Automatic Creative Mechanism to expand their world. Those who succeed had to do it. They had to override their discomfort of new and unfamiliar situations, and they had to continue to encourage their creativity and their initiative to run things.
