Why You Must Push Out Of The Comfort Zone!

Your comfort zone is a safety net where anxiety levels and the status quo are preserved. It is your harbor of contentment.Your comfort zone is a protective bubble — but it is not protecting you as much as you think.

Breaking out of your comfort zone is not just making a drastic change and wishing for the best. It’s freeing yourself from the rigid cognitive beliefs you hold about yourself and how your life is “supposed” to be lived. It’s gaining flexibility and becoming more open to the possibility that life is ultimately a series of endless ones.

Be brave and believe in yourself. Take one step forward and show others who you truly are. Spread those wings and learn to fly because until you try it will simply be a dream and you will never know how it feels to actually be wild and free

“Choosing to be curious is choosing to be vulnerable because it requires us to surrender to uncertainty. It wasn’t always a choice; we were born curious. But over time, we learn that curiosity, like vulnerability, can lead to hurt. As a result, we turn to self-protecting— choosing certainty over curiosity, armour over vulnerability, and knowing over learning,” says Brené Brown in her recent book, Rising Strong

It is incredibly easy to stay in the comfortable life you have made for yourself. You can stay in your hometown forever. You can keep the same dude that is just okay, because I mean what if there isn’t better? But most importantly you need to stay in the job you hate, even if you complain about it like all the time. But they say it is easy to die in a snowstorm, the cold becomes comfortable after a while when you’re freezing to death. That’s what being comfortable can do to you; it can kill you without you even knowing it. It would be so easy to live in what you know forever.

Maybe getting out of your comfort zone isn’t your biggest priority right now, but why not? To move beyond your comfort zone requires smaller steps to confront your fears, whilst managing discomfort.

“Create an internal “comfort zone.” Then, when you get into the situation, it isn’t foreign. It doesn’t scare you.” Stephen R. Covey is referring to creating an inner sanctuary when change overwhelms us. Within that space is the reassurance that what eventuates cannot disrupt what is familiar.

The power of the mind is infinite. If you put limitations on yourself, people will see these too. Hope this pushes you to take that step out of your known to the unknown and discover how you can be unstoppable!
