Go naked. For the sake of greatness.

7/13/2014

It has often been said that all the greatest things in life are happening right outside your comfort zone. In order to grow you must be willing to feel uncomfortable. You must do things you are afraid of because the greatest of risks bring the greatest of rewards. So I want you to go naked. Drop pretense. Drop social conventions, expectations and working for a result. This ocean of risktaking can be scary as it is more vast than the human eye can see. So why not take some babysteps? Here are a few things you can start doing today to get you in the habit of running towards greatness in the uncomfortable.

1. Walk around naked
Ok, please don't just do this anywhere- but in those places where it may be appropriate to let it all hang out, why not give it a go? A spa, a sauna, a nudist colony. We spend way too much time being comfortable in our clothes. Even spending a Sunday morning walking around the house naked can take you out of your comfort zone and change your experience of life.

2. Leave the house without your phone


Our phones have become, like clothing, an extension of ourselves. Any slight sense of discomfort, we reach for our phones. Alone in a public place? Well lonely no more when we can stay connected 24 hrs a day. You can continue your game of Candy Crush or post an extremely happy looking selfie to Facebook, lest anyone think for a second that you were either unpopular or not "living the dream" every waking moment. Well we see through it. This newfound smartphone connected world leaves us more disconnected and dying on the inside than ever before. So try leaving the house without it. See if you can be with yourself, make eye contact with actual other people, even meet someone in a bar without using tinder. Oooh.

3. Go to acting class
Whether you are an actor or not, acting class will take you out of your comfort zone- if it is a good class. The great Rosalind Russell said “Acting is standing up naked and turning around very slowly.”  A good acting class will teach you to focus on something outside of yourself so that you are free to express your truth. The deepest truth of ourselves, through imaginary circumstances. Dropping the pretenses of the social world and just being seen for who we truly are takes naked to a whole new level. Wanna experience it? Drop in class is every Sunday 5-8 pm-
