Your Comfort Zone

Everyone has a comfort zone. It could be a favorite room in your home, a friend’s home, your office or wherever. We all have our own comfort zone. With most of us it’s our job. We go to work, do the same thing over and over everyday.

 We work our jobs, but most of us hate our jobs. For the most part we work for the same company, the same boss, doing the same job or task month after month, year after year, for 5, 10, 15 years or more. Most of us will retire from the company we have worked for, for years.

 We might get a pension or retirement package, but will it be enough to live on comfortably for the rest of our lives? Most workers will retire when they reach their mid sixties.

 Not to be morbid or anything like that, but how much longer will we live past our mid sixties? Social Security, if it’s still around in 10 or more years, won’t be close enough for us to live a comfortable life after we retire. Most of us will have to get a part-time job, just to make ends meet.

 If we do get a part-time job, is that really retirement? Here’s an example. My own Dad retired, but took a part-time job at Walmart as a door greeter. He really wasn’t retired, he just worked part-time.

 I am an aluminum boat welder. I’ve been welding for over 7 years, so I guess you can say that’s my comfort zone. The only thing about it is, “I HATE IT!” 

I hate working for someone else. Having to get up early, drive to work, work until they say I can take a break, when I can go to lunch, when to be back from lunch and when I can go home. Some comfort zone huh?

 If I were a betting man I’d say it’s probably the same with you. I’m tired of it, so my Wife and I started our own business from home. After looking for a business we would be comfortable with we decided to start a business that helps people who don’t have insurance or any kind of medical benefits. 

To us, helping others, now that’s a great comfort zone. We are looking forward to helping as many people as we can. With the cost of health care these days, people need insurance. If they can’t get insurance, we have an alternative.

 How about you? Would you be willing to step out of your comfort zone and help others? I promise, it won’t hurt and I’m sure you’ll feel good about it.

I’d Rather Fight Than Switch!

  Back when I was a kid, I remember a saying that went something like this,“I’d rather fight than switch.” I think it had to do with cigarettes.

  As I’ve gotten older, I look back and think about the times when I could have done different things in my life. Maybe a different job, place to live, car that I owned, etc. 

I sometimes wonder if my life would have been different if I would have made a switch, rather than fight making that switch. Back when I was younger, I worked as a cook in a restaurant and I was pretty good.

 My grandfather told me I needed to do something better, something that paid more. I didn’t want to hear that so I just kept cooking. A few years later the restaurant closed and I didn’t have anything to fall back on. He was right.

 Looking back I wish I would have applied myself to learning something that I could make a career out of, but I have to admit, I was lazy. I just took whatever I could find.

 Now that I’m older (and hopefully wiser), I have finally found a business that I can call my own. I have a lot to learn, but I am applying myself and trying to learn as much as I can.

 I have a great teacher, coach, mentor, whatever you want to call it, I’m learning. Back when I was younger “I’d Rather Fight Than Switch,” and I was WRONG! 

I have realized that I should have taken my grandfather’s advice and made a switch to something better. I guess better late than never. 

What I am doing now, is helping people who need help. There are people who don’t have any health benefits, prescription benefits or dental benefits. The business my wife and I are in offer a way for people to get the care they need at a discount of what they normally would pay.

 I regret having the “I’d Rather Fight Than Switch” mind set back then. I look forward to helping as many people as we can.

If you would like to help others, you can. It’s never too late. Just click on the link below and you can find out how to make a difference in other people’s lives as well as your own.
