Not that easy though 4

It is really not easy for somebody to keep trying to get out of their comfort zone. I am blessed to realize that getting out of comfort zone can help someone to grow. Therefore, I decided not to stay within my comfort zone longer. For that decision, I have met many interesting friends every time I tried to reach to another unfamiliar zone. The ability for me to adapt myself into a new environment has been sharpened gradually throughout my life.

Getting into Amway meeting every Tuesday night is one of the efforts I am trying to make in order to step out of my comfort zone. They are all kinds of people over there such as businessman, salesman, office workers, professional and so on. The people are generally friendly and funny. They like to talk, just like me. Some are really attractive and humorous speakers that I would like to learn from. I am new over there, they just need to know my name, but I need to get to remember all of their names in order not to feel awkward. It takes time and some effort to do so. But generally, I enjoy being there so far.


Being active in PKV Persaudaraan Kristian Varsity is another effort that I am trying to make in order to step out of my comfort zone. Over here, we are one, because God has adopted us into this one big family. Worshipping together with the people there and interacting with the Christians are really enjoyable to me. Getting to know new faces can make me get excited but I always remind myself not to be a touch-and-go friend to them. My brain seldom stops working during the meeting. It is nice to talk about faith and God over there, because I don’t have many Christian friends actually. Besides that, it is quite a good training for me to learn speaking in English. I think I am doing well so far, but of course a lot of space for improvement. However, I try to remind myself not to be a nervous fast talker, but to be a charismatic speaker who delivers messages effectively and clearly. It takes time to learn and requires patience to learn unceasingly. I am going to be great!! May God bless me because it is not easy!!
