So sitting there five hours ago, laboring away on my laptop my mind,
as no more scattered than usual, somewhat focused on the task at hand. While I simultaneously watch tv

you just listen to the post, titled embarrass yourself and worry serves no useful purpose.
Both by lorry the chain of tiny Buddha dot com? So
I can relate to that. A lot of was offer you to its often easy to hear advice
that about going under a comfort zone but difficult to actually take action and do it as something I'm working on, for example,
friend interview me and we over the phone recently, something I would have avoided at all costs. Even just two months ago, but after Lazo conversation-
own and then even recording one. Unofficially, it became easier. It wasn't easy at all for me, but it helps a lot so take those baby steps and get out here, comfort zone
