Easy Strategies to Move Out of Your Comfort Zone

How do you know when you’re in your comfort zone? Do you ever pay attention or think about if you’re working and living to your full potential? Or are you just coasting along, following the status quo and enjoying life?

Every human alive has a comfort zone. It’s that space where things come easily, life is predictable, and the idea of making changes makes your palms sweat. Surprisingly, many people move through life just accepting every day as it comes, without the desire to grow or explore how they can learn and achieve more.

Some older parents or grandparents actually get insulted at the idea of self-improvement, as if you’re not grateful for the life you’ve been given. Quite the opposite is true. Self-improvement is a natural part of human evolution and we actually have the power to create changes in any area of our life where we’re not satisfied. Many people go through their whole lives not understanding that power.

This might sound like a heavy topic but it’s an important one, especially if you feel you’re not reaching the goals you’ve set for yourself.

Keep in mind that comfort zones appear in every aspect of our lives. Career is the obvious one but it also shows up in our finances and relationships, too.

In this episode, we’re talking about the 4 stages of moving through your comfort zone into a new way of being. Be sure to take notes and be honest with yourself as you answer the questions. There’s no shame, blame, or guilt. We all have different journeys, we’ll face different hurdles, and we’ll have a different timeframe for breaking free of our comfort zones.

The most important thing is to be consistent with your actions and be willing to learn throughout the process. Remember, we don't develop our confidence and skillset when things are easy.
