Value Focus~Risk Taking

Our Comfort Zone

Today in Values, we learned about risk-taking.  The kind of risk-taking we are talking about is the things that we can do to develop our learning, enjoy new experiences and grow as people.  
We discussed what our comfort zone is and how we need to take different paths at times, often feeling like risks, where we may feel uncomfortable and out of our comfort zone.  This is where the learning, growth and enjoyment happens.  
We decided to create our learning about our own comfort zones by using either a Google Drawing or Mind Mup.  
Check out individual blogs to see examples.

The next step for my learning is to work out how I can take different paths and risks so that things out of my comfort zone become learning and positive experiences,
