Q: Matt,
I have so much I want to accomplish but the couch is mighty comfortable. Any suggestions on how to get out of this comfort zone?
A: The couch isn’t the comfort zone; it’s the failure zone. Getting off the couch and doing what you’ve set out to do with your life will put you into the success zone – and success is much more comfortable than failure.
So how do you get up and get going? Simple. You set an appointment with yourself. You do the same as if you were going to see an eye doctor, or go out on a date, or go to a movie. You have a set time – so you’re on time.
Make appointments with yourself – not just other people. Schedule your time the way you would if you were an athlete or musician playing with others on a team.
