Life begins at the end of your comfort zone

Description

I've been travelling through desolated mountain vasts and wastelands along my travel buddy ~Arkelion for many days.
That was really meaningful journey despite of unbearable pain of hiking, surviving nature powers and exhausting our bodies.


The worst moment was when devil clouds conquered whole highlands with it's crazy thunderstorms, hail, rain and oblivion-y winds caused our hiking become extremely difficult. On the way to shrine we had to go through valley where were tons of active bears. I thought that could be my last journey and cursed that I should have sat down safely at home.

How did I start travelling? How to travel? How did I improve with my art?

Get out from comfort zone. All what you need is to make a step into unknown. You will see the rest how life works. The whole universe will aid you once you will step away from your comfortable nest.

As quote says... "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone".


Besides than that I'm crazily inspired. My inspiration is so high at the moment but I need jump to art store, buy new paper and do crazy paintings. Nothing inspires me as good as travelling and teaches me new techniques. Internet *never* really helps me to get inspired, rather it distracts me out.

I'm not going to write a wall of text how well travels influences but I'll post a link- Noah Bradley, known as one of the best landscape artists - confirms it. Read it. Get inspired!

Oh and photo is taken by cell phone. It seriously beats DSLR cameras. Seriously.

beautiful photo, especially since it was taken on your phone. Beautiful mood in the photo too. You are right, some of my best and rewarding experiences have been when I physically exert myself. I am still learning how to fully push myself out of my comfort zone, in travelling and other things too. Some people seem to have a natural ability for it, they seem to have no fear. It comes hard to me and I don't do it often enough but I should because the reward is amazing.
I think one of my problems is that I don't know how to go about doing some of the things I would like. Another is probably that I lack confidence. But I will keep trying, perhaps I will learn.

You are very inspiring. What you do, how you push yourself and the way you write about your experiences. It is very moving. 
Thank you. Perhaps your experiences will motivate me to get off my butt!
