Your Comfort Zone

They say that the magic happens outside of your comfort zone. However, stepping out of our comfort zones can be a very difficult thing to muster up. At times, it can feel like you’re just stuck in one place. How can we teach ourselves to be the brave go-getters we so heavily admire?

The very first thing to do is accept that you are going to be uneasy at first. Doing something that strays away from our everyday norms is almost always the harder choice. If we can accept this uncomfortable feeling and embrace the change, you will be in a mindset that sets you up for success.

Something else that might help you, is to sit down and assess your goal. What resources do you need to achieve it? Time? Money? Support? Once you have a clear path, the anxieties associated with the unknown will slowly slip away. Planning is a great way to combat anxiety in general. If you are unsure how to do what you need to do, talk to someone you are close to and get their advice. Learning what you need to do and setting a realistic timeline will make any life transition much easier to digest.
