3 reasons why you need to get out of the comfort zone
Inspiration / / December 26, 2019
The moment when you realize that all has turned out, and life is good, is that so hard being built by the comfort zone is fraught with immense danger.
There is an old and very correct saying: "Fish is looking for where it is deeper, and the person - which is better." And it is quite right and natural. Each person tends to make his life as a more convenient and enjoyable as possible. Liveable more car faster, the bed softer, more powerful computer. It would be quite idiotic to give up these benefits of civilization.
It would seem, well, what's wrong with quiet comfortable existence? You feel relaxed in your life there are no risks, you are happy with how things are going and do not feel no need to change anything. Maybe you do not feel incredibly happy and 100% satisfied, but at least you do not feel comfortable with it?
Not.
Almost always your comfort zone is the result of self-deception. You tell yourself that the best alternative to your current state of does not exist, that you have spent too much energy to build it, it's too hard to change anything in my life. You stay at one though quite a convenient location, with their own hands negates all the gorgeous vistas of your life. comfort zone becomes for you to the end point of your journey. Why is this happening?
You become soft
What happens to the man who for some time immersed in a bath of warm water? He relaxes, goes limp. And if such a stretch to stay for quite some time? That's right, it degrades. His muscles lose their tone, and very soon he will not be able not only to run, but even just to stand still.
But it's not just the body. The same thing happens with our brain.
No need to solve complex problems leads to a dilution in the head and loss of clear thinking, learning and decision-making.
You become a vegetable that every day moves along the same path, and every day carries out the same task.
Meanwhile, remember what period of your life was your most productive and creative? I am sure that it was not the most well-fed and comfortable times. Some students will remember the sleepless nights, and other life-threatening situations, and travel, and others - critical periods in your life when everything had to start all over again.
You give up life goals
Everyone, well, almost every person has somewhere deep in the subcortex of the most cherished goal of his life. Yes, something from the series "See Paris and die." Most interesting is that very often these goals are not quite so exorbitant and unattainable. But something always prevents us.
We defer their goal further and further, and with the growth of your comfort zone around it becomes virtually unattainable. It's so hard though for a while to get out of a warm bath and go out.
You can never know themselves
There is an opinion, and it is justified only in the difficulties opens the true face. You can and live all their lives under greenhouse conditions and never know what you are able to in fact. You really can be brave and resourceful? You really will be able to show patience and persistence, or you just think it?
It's time to get out of your comfort zone and understand, if only for myself, what kind of person you really are and where lies the limit of your capabilities. I assure you that the result is sure to surprise you.
Sooner or later, the comfort zone for anyone turns to the factor that hinders its development and robs life of sensations acuity. Think of the most interesting moments of his life. Probably most of them associated with exactly those moments when you have done something different, extreme, out of the ordinary routine. Out of your comfort zone.
So why not do it again?
