How To Expand Your Comfort Zone

Our comfort zone is a (mostly unspoken) list of the things we will or won't do. With things we are happy to do inside of it and those that we aren't outside.
Comfort zones can change over time. When experiencing a trauma a comfort zone can shrink quite rapidly, but for most of us this happens slowly over time without us really realising it.
As we say now to things that are just inside of our comfort zone, we push these things outside, shrinking our zone. This can happen over and over until the list of things you are prepared to do is extremely small.
Thankfully, they can be grown to and this is done by the opposite action. Choosing something that is just outside of the zone causes your zone to expand.
With regular effort on your personal development you can be capable of things way beyond your current limits.
So If you want to know how to expand your comfort zone it's by challenging it then banking the success!

When was the last time YOU did something to expand your comfort zone?

I like this advice to take it step by step rather than saying "go outside of your comfort zone" bcuz it sounds so immediate. Going outside your comfort zone also relates with anxiety and panic attacks so its never been easy to do it instantly and this video helps.

Glad to help. And yes a lot of advice out there confuses “simple” with “easy”. Expanding our comfort zone by very nature is not going to be easy. Because we need to make ourselves deliberately uncomfortable in order to do it.

I like that you use the term "expand" than simply use "go outside of" comfort zone. The former directly means growth while the latter means somehow "stop" the things you do comfortably. Did I make any sense? Haha

Yes I get you. 🙌
