The Comfort Zone
Break out into the learning zone for an exciting life.
 

Are you tired of doing the same old things?

...spending time with the same people?

...hanging out in the same places?

Do you ever feel like your life is a bit redundant or stagnant? Maybe...IT IS!

It's time to fix it. You are stuck in what is called your Comfort Zone (CZ). The Comfort Zone is an imaginary place that is full of all the things that you have learned to do so well that you don't even have to think about it. Things like breathing, walking, talking are in there. So are things like playing video games, watching TV, sending text messages, browsing the internet...you can do all those things without much effort...it's all terribly comfortable for you. Now, those things aren't necessarily bad...but, if I told you that from this point forward, you would have to spend the rest of your life doing just the things that are already in your comfort zone...what would you say?

Would that be a boring or exciting way to live?

BORING! You know it's true. If you just did the things you already know how to do, hung out with only the people you already know, ate foods you have already tried...it would all become very boring.

So, lets leave the CZ and head to another place called the Learning Zone (LZ). The LZ is full of all that stuff you've always wanted to try but were maybe a little bit afraid to go out and do. It could be things like skydiving, writing a poem, singing out loud, speaking in public, fixing a relationship...there is so much out there. Now, these things might be a bit scary...but, that's the point. You might even have to get out there and make a mistake or two but at the end of the day...it's all learning. That's how we grow and that's how our lives stay interesting and fulfilling.

Get out of your CZ and start spending some time every day in your LZ. You will be amazed how much fun and learning will come your way!
