As humans, we always love staying in our comfort zones, and some of us never want to experience new things.
The funny part is sometimes I see people complaining about how life is boring, and nothing fun happens to them, but they have never stopped to ask themselves why nothing seems to be changing in their lives.
Have you ever done something new? Do you have any hobbies? What do you do all day? Do you go outside, or do you stay all day indoors? Do you embrace change and opportunities when they come to you?
These are some questions you need to ask yourself if you feel like nothing changes in your life.
The world may be changing, but some people still want to be stuck in the archaic way of thinking, and they don't even know they are harming themselves.
Things change; people change! You shouldn't expect someone to stay the same way forever because you don't want to change yourself.
Imagine if a person still sends hand-written letters to his friends and family who live in a different country; it may take days to reach the receiver.
In the past, if you traveled to another country or place, it may take months before you even reached your destination, especially if you were using sea transport. The possibility of you dying from diseases was high.
But nowadays we have airplanes and cars that could take us to our destinations without spending 3-4 months on sea.
Whether you like it or not, nothing will stay the same, and you will have to leave your comfort zone and do something that requires you to.
Leaving your comfort zone may be scary, but how are you ever going to evolve if you keep doing the same thing repeatedly? You have to understand that staying the same way won't help you.
So many people don't want to take hold of opportunities because they are afraid of the future and don't want to leave the comfort they are in, it is ok to stay in your comfort zone, but do you want to stay there forever?
A friend of mine always complained that no one ever seemed to talk or notice him. I looked at him, then asked him if he had even tried talking to anyone or if he had made an attempt to interact with others.
As I told him this, his eyes seemed to open wide as if I had told him the secret to success or something; as soon as I told him this, he suddenly started interacting with people he didn't even know, and he had friends all over the place.
The same can be said on this platform; if you don't have subscribers, you must change what you are doing and start interacting more with others.
Like my friend, some of us look for problems around us when ultimately we are holding ourselves back; if you want to experience new things in life, don't sit around and wait for them to come to you.
Outside your house, there are many new scenarios, adventures, and people waiting for you to approach them, but you have to make the first step, which is to change your attitude towards new things.
I was writing a story a few days ago; you can check them out below, but when I started writing it, I kept telling myself that I couldn't do it because it was stressful thinking of how to build the characters up and what story people would like.
But when I changed my mindset on writing the story, I wrote the story to part seven. Can you imagine? Someone that didn't even know how to start the story ended up writing seven chapters of it.
I was shocked and happy that people appreciated my story and even wanted me to continue. I want to thank everyone that supported it; I appreciate you so much.
I am trying to say that when you change your mindset towards opportunities, you will improve and enjoy yourself; the only one holding you back from new things is yourself.
Change your mindset, and you will eventually live a happy life, trust me.

I got a few unfinished and unstarted stories to get off the back burner.
I'm just too distracted by my chaotic life. Lol!
It's never too late to complete or start those stories..... I also have a lot of things to do but I just avoid them with no reasonable reasons 😂
