Comfort Zone

Stepping out of my comfort zone, why is that so hard? What am I afraid of? Making a fool of myself? I've already done that, more often than necessary. But failure is a give-in. No one can be good at everything. And hey, if you try something new, and you don't do so swell.....at least you gave it your best. That's all anyone can ask for. You don't fail when you lose, you fail when you give up.
