“The comfort zone is nothing else but a graveyard for your dreams & ideas.” -Anonymous
In the Comfort zone, you need to take that leap of faith and push yourself outside your comfort zone.
Why? Well, I have learned that there are many benefits in doing so- not only will it make life <span data-preserver-spaces=”true”>more exciting, and an experience worth having!
Although taking risks is scary, it’s necessary for growth. You can’t grow if you don’t step out of your comfort zone from time to time!
However, the best time is up in the air, but I’ve learned that there are moments when we need to take a chance… and exit the Comfort zone!
The Following tips for stepping outside your comfort bubble easily and effectively:
Be Intentional With Your Choices…Outside Of The Comfort zone!
The best way to have a happy, fulfilling life is by being intentional about your decisions.
It also involves clarifying our favorite memories, knowing which ones matter most! Lastly, it may seem hard at times, but these things can help prevent errors in judgment later down the road.
To do so, you must be clear on who and what kind of person you desire for your future self.
It means understanding everything from…
- personal interests,
- family values, goals;
- lifestyle preferences
- spending time with family and friends
- taking care of oneself;
- romantic orientation,
- and whether you prefer femininity over masculinity.
See, Life is all about making decisions and choosing who you are. Instead of doing what society expects you to do, you’ll be doing what you want to do. (Get out of your comfort zone!)
You’ll live the life you want, not the one others expect you to live.
Don’t allow fear to consume you...Feel the fear and do it anyway.” -Anonymous
One of the biggest reasons people stay inside their comfort zones is that they fear what will happen if they step outside.
You fear that you won’t be able to accomplish your goals or will fail. Or it could be that you are afraid of not being able to perform as well as you would in your comfort zone.
Often, fear consumes you, making it difficult to do anything outside your comfort zone. You don’t have to fall victim to this fear, though.
You can rise above it and overcome it by taking some deep breaths. Or by doing something that makes you happy and getting your mind off of the things that have you feeling anxious and stressed out.
I’m not telling you it’s going to be easy; I’m telling you it’s going to be worth it.” -Anonymous Quote
Be Bold …Try Something You’re Afraid To Do!
In contrast, we’re afraid of many things, whether public speaking, asking someone out, or taking a new route to work.
Whether you know it or not…the best way to step outside your comfort bubble is to try something you’re afraid of.
It’s a great way to test your boundaries and give you an idea of what it feels like to be https://jusmeetwo.com/failure-is-an-opportunity-to-succeed/outside your comfort zone.
You may even find that you can do things you thought you were incapable of. What matters most is just doing it!
If you get the heebie-jeebies…shake it off and get to stepping!
Once you’ve tried something outside your comfort zone, you may notice less afraid of it. You may also realize that it’s not as bad as you thought it would be and wasn’t that bad at all.
Make small changes that lead to big results
Another great way to step outside your comfort zone is to make small changes that lead to large results.
Start small, then work your way up as you become more comfortable with the idea of stepping outside your comfort zone.
Take action immediately…When was the last time you did something for the first time.” -Anonymous
One of the best ways to step outside your comfort zone is to take action immediately.
If not, you’ll let your mind convince you that you can’t do it and talk yourself out.
So, refuse to delay; instead, take action immediately and don’t let yourself psych yourself out.
There is no doubt; If you let it sit in your mind too long, you’ll psych yourself out and never do it.
When…Now is always the right time!
Nevertheless, another way to step outside your comfort zone is to remind yourself that now is always the right time.
It’s always the right time to ask someone out or make a big change in your life.
Now is always the right time to do something to make you a better person.
Instead of when you feel ready, stepping outside your comfort zone and doing these things now will make you a better person, no matter what happens.
By leaving your comfort zone behind and taking a leap of faith into something new, you find out who you are truly capable of becoming.” -Anonymous
