Many people view their comfort zone as a wonderful and cozy place where life is easy, familiar, and totally risk-free. While this may sound like an ideal environment, it’s impossible to grow as a person if you stay inside your comfort zone because there are no opportunities to try new things, make mistakes, experience failure, and learn from those experiences. If you expect to grow, you must step outside your comfort zone. Only there can you try new things, face new challenges and make new friends. Yes, you will experience some stress and anxiety, but you will become a more confident, capable, interesting, and resilient person. You will also add a dimension of fun and excitement to your life.
