Progressing throughout your comfort zone: The fact is that people do not like anything to leave the comfort zone. At this point, it’s worth it, to be honest with you and we would be lying if we tell you that we are one of those guys who is always trying new things, risking, et cetera.
It is fashionable to leave the comfort zone, but we confess that I like the comfort and even the monotony … the most promising weekend has been the latter, not leaving home in two days, rather than going to receive a message (my back suffers the consequences of hyper-productivity) and to go to the gym. The rest of the time being on the sofa, books, series, cooking …
Anyway, it’s about having some perspective on this topic. If we never left the comfort zone we would not have made much progress in recent years. If we were out of it all the time, my sense of well being would not be what it is. One does not always have to be leaving the comfort zone, it would not be healthy for you, but when you do it your capacity increases. You stretch, you challenge yourself, and therefore, you end up improving. There are some consequences that yes, stress, discomfort, insecurity, tension, etc.
You may think that your work does not allow it, right? It is also possible that you do not feel like leaving the comfort zone in your work, for what reason should you do it? It is also possible that your work does not excite you, that it discourages you. It is also possible that this article is not for you.
Leaving the comfort zone is just an attitude to life, risks a few times with the intention of broadening the soul, to point to the stars to end up jumping a little higher. If you do not do it in the labor field, at least you could try it in the personal field. Make that trip alone, start those guitar lessons, visit that place, fulfill that uncomfortable promise you made to your children, sign up (and go) to the gym on the corner, meditate every day, stop eating so many sugars, book that trip for you and your partner … There are so many things you would like to do …
We think that the comfort zone is an attitude towards life. Not an excessive attitude of risk, but a thoughtful and courageous attitude, in which one gets on the edge of the precipice from time to time, jumps and discovers that he had some great wings with which to be able to fly. There are many groups that invite you to lead a comfortable life; after all, happiness and well-being are what counts. But do not forget that there are certain treasures that you will not find at the door of your house. The risk from time to time, discover the hero/heroine that lives in you and do not stop looking at the horizon and go on a trip to new territories.
