There are four zones in life: comfort, fear, learning, and growth. You cannot stay in your comfort zone forever or you will stagnate, regress, and make everyone around you miserable. But you also cannot live in your growth zone all the time or you will burn out. The key is pushing through the fear zone into the learning zone where you deal with challenges, acquire new skills, and extend your comfort zone. Everyone has fear. Even the bravest people in the world have fear. The difference is they push through it with courage into their learning and growth zones. That is where you find your purpose, live your dreams, and conquer your objectives.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The four zones and why you need range between comfort and growth to avoid stagnation or burnout
• Why 5 to 15 percent of people hate superintendent bootcamp (they stay in the fear zone and never break through)
• How pushing through fear into the learning zone is what separates those who grow from those who stay the same
• Why people who arrive at positions and stay in comfort zones create broken relationships, bad marriages, and career stagnation
• Powerful quotes from Helen Keller, Theodore Roosevelt's "The Man in the Arena," and "The Dash" by Linda Ellis

When your eulogy is being read with your life's actions to rehash, would you be proud of the things they say about how you spent your dash?
