You would think after seven years of blogging, I would be like to step outside my comfort zone more frequently. Unfortunately, I too can get very complacent. Not across the board, but definitely with my work though. Bryce Lennon, you are such a driven person, what gives? What can I say? We all have our weak spots. Yes, I’m a man of structure and routines. However, complacency tends to creep in at some of the most unsuspecting times.
To this point, I recently stepped outside of my comfort zone with UnregisteredStyle and curated “The Love Experience,” an editorial project that features dynamic couples in love. You can find the first post here.
Great work Bryce Lennon, but how does this relate to stepping outside of your comfort zone? Simple! For one, I have yet to coordinate a fashion related project with ten people or more, until now. Don’t get me wrong, I had my reservations at first. Working with one model is challenging enough. Add a few more, let alone nine, chaos will ensue. Plus, I had to deal with cancellations and accommodating everyone’s hectic schedule. No bueno!
So, why add more stress? Ultimately, it came down to my subconscious itch to grow. Although the quality of my work has improved over the years, fear was holding me back from reaching my full potential. So, I had to step outside of my comfort zone, and make things happen. Best decision ever. I’m going to let you be the judge on that one though.
Be on the look out for more tidbits from the Love Experience throughout the month of February, and thank you for being a listening ear today. It really means a lot (Now that was really outside my comfort zone 🙂 )
Thanks for listening,
