Hello everyone and welcome to my blog at this hour. There are several write-ups about the discourse of comfort zone and this is still going to be a vital topic to write about in years to come due to its importance in our lives as humans. We all love to be comfortable, no man wants to be in a position where their safety or peace of mind will be queried. However, it is key to note that most of the beautiful things that happen to people don't happen in their comfort zones. Well, sit back, relax and enjoy all that I have packaged for your reading pleasure.

In our comfort zones, we experience optimal safety and security which means that there are little or no risks because we have created this safe haven for ourselves and have adapted to it so much that we don't want to try a new "zone". It is extremely hard for us to leave this zone not to even talk of thinking about stepping out. In the real sense, we are doing ourselves no good by making the decision to remain in our comfort zone instead of exploring other possibilities. The implications of staying in your comfort zone is simple - you have set a limit for yourself. You need to step out of your comfort zone to exceed those limits.
When we talk about stepping out of your comfort zone it does not necessarily mean to leave your current location to another, or to quit a job where you have been performing excellently to another where you'd face more challenges. It also have to do with mindset, that is, letting go of ideas and beliefs you have had for a long time that is no longer effective and acting as a barrier to your progress. It's about letting go of ideas that are holding you back and creating room for new mind-blowing ideas. When you leave your comfort zone you will be able to discover yourself and pinpoint the opportunities that you have been blinded to for a long time.

I remember when I was in the secondary school, one of my teachers admonished us before we wrote our final papers that we should not be too comfortable with the position we were at that time but we should aim higher. I can remember vividly that she said if you want a C aim for a B and if you want a B aim for an A because if you want a C and you aim for a C you may end up a D. So, it is better to always get out of one's comfort zone to aim for a better and higher opportunities.

It may be easier said than done to step out of one's comfort zone but when you take baby steps it will be easy to break out of the zone and start a new befitting life. Take it one step at a time so as to avoid an overwhelming case. However, note that when you leave your comfort zone you are going to find yourself in a new and strange place but you should not panic or give up. It may be a difficult one at first but with time you will begin to make headway.
