Stepping Out Of Your Comfort Zone

It’s always hard to step out of your comfort zone, but when you do get to step out of it, you definitely improve yourself! The key there is to expand your comfort zone! We all fear different things, and fear is one of the strongest human emotion! But when we overcome those fears, well our comfort zone gets bigger and expands, thus increasing our self-confidence and self-esteem! Which is always good!

Conquering your fears and expanding your comfort zone doesn’t mean jumping in and making blind decisions! To expand your comfort zone you have to take calculated risks, stop procrastinating, and it’ll expand! And as it expands, you will most probably feel better, and get more things done in less time!

So how do we do this? Well here are a couple of tips you can use that may be helpful:

• When you have something to do, do it, even if you’re not sure what will come out of it, for example, if you have a tough phone call to make, well do it, you’ll feel better after the phone call than before.
• Be honest and sincere when you talk to someone! Make sure the other person understands your points and views. And even if the other person doesn’t agree, it’s fine! You have to stand up for what you believe in, and you cannot make everybody agree and like it!
• Do things you don’t do really often, or haven’t done before! You want to gain more knowledge and more experience, so get involved, take whatever courses, hang out with people you respect and that have interesting conversations.
• Remember that if you had bad experiences in the past, chances are the same thing won’t happen again, but you won’t know if you don’t try it again! Don’t let your fears control you!
