"It is after you have stepped out of your comfort zone, that you start experiencing growth, and transformation." -Roy T. Bennett.

As humans, we always love staying in our comfort zones, and some of us never want to experience new things.

The funny part is sometimes I see people complaining about how life is boring, and nothing fun happens to them, but they have never stopped to ask themselves why nothing seems to be changing in their lives.

Have you ever done something new? Do you have any hobbies? What do you do all day? Do you go outside, or do you stay all day indoors? Do you embrace change and opportunities when they come to you?

These are some questions you need to ask yourself if you feel like nothing changes in your life.

The world may be changing, but some people still want to be stuck in the archaic way of thinking, and they don't even know they are harming themselves.

Things change; people change! You shouldn't expect someone to stay the same way forever because you don't want to change yourself. 

Imagine if a person still sends hand-written letters to his friends and family who live in a different country; it may take days to reach the receiver. 

In the past, if you traveled to another country or place, it may take months before you even reached your destination, especially if you were using sea transport. The possibility of you dying from diseases was high.

But nowadays we have airplanes and cars that could take us to our destinations without spending 3-4 months on sea.

Whether you like it or not, nothing will stay the same, and you will have to leave your comfort zone and do something that requires you to.

Leaving your comfort zone may be scary, but how are you ever going to evolve if you keep doing the same thing repeatedly? You have to understand that staying the same way won't help you.

So many people don't want to take hold of opportunities because they are afraid of the future and don't want to leave the comfort they are in, it is ok to stay in your comfort zone, but do you want to stay there forever?

A friend of mine always complained that no one ever seemed to talk or notice him. I looked at him, then asked him if he had even tried talking to anyone or if he had made an attempt to interact with others.

As I told him this, his eyes seemed to open wide as if I had told him the secret to success or something; as soon as I told him this, he suddenly started interacting with people he didn't even know, and he had friends all over the place.

The same can be said on this platform; if you don't have subscribers, you must change what you are doing and start interacting more with others.

Like my friend, some of us look for problems around us when ultimately we are holding ourselves back; if you want to experience new things in life, don't sit around and wait for them to come to you.

Outside your house, there are many new scenarios, adventures, and people waiting for you to approach them, but you have to make the first step, which is to change your attitude towards new things.

I was writing a story a few days ago; you can check them out below, but when I started writing it, I kept telling myself that I couldn't do it because it was stressful thinking of how to build the characters up and what story people would like.

But when I changed my mindset on writing the story, I wrote the story to part seven. Can you imagine? Someone that didn't even know how to start the story ended up writing seven chapters of it.

I was shocked and happy that people appreciated my story and even wanted me to continue. I want to thank everyone that supported it; I appreciate you so much.

I am trying to say that when you change your mindset towards opportunities, you will improve and enjoy yourself; the only one holding you back from new things is yourself.

Change your mindset, and you will eventually live a happy life, trust me.

If you are stuck in a gray life, it is possible that you live in a bubble called "comfort zone", it is well as he says in his article a state of mind that does not allow personal growth. "Think about your style of doing things ... and act in the opposite direction"

Adoption of change is never easy. It requires strong willpower and commitment. Lot of fear and uncertainty in mind comes when we modify our routine towards new destination . But once we control it under 66 days formula , wecan do it .

Doing the same thing over and over won't benefit us, that is why it is important we change our routine once in a while.

Few days ago my supervisor was saying to me that, come out from comfort zone.
Because, i was lazy to complete my tasks. He and you are right. Yes we need to come out from comfort zone. Mericals happen out of comfort zone.
Yes, if we work hard and definitely, we would achieve splendid success. Good one 🙏

This is exceptionally obvious companion you made the right idea! We want to remove and move from our own usual range of familiarity sooner or later in life since, supposing that don't we can never encounter what genuine development resembles. Your post was great friend! It is ourselves and with that qe should step out fron our comfort so we can grow.

Indeed. It depends on us when we start changing our mindset we see many doors open for us. If you want a comfort you have to come out from the comfort zone (:

Yeah, keeping an open mind is definitely one way to grow and evolved. Narrow-mindedness is just limiting which stunts growth.

That's what I'm trying to do. Adopting something new so I can change myself. Self-improvement sounds simple but it's not. It takes years after years to change ourselves. Thanks for the advice.

Stepping outside our comfort zone can be someone's biggest step to achieve a success. Maybe it too risky at first but it can benefit us at the end..After all change is the only thing that is inevitable.

Change is the only constant thing we have. We need to learn to adapt and move out of our comfort zone.

Exactly HappyBoy, but the thing is, most of us don't want to learn new things. Instead, we are stuck in a never-ending routine without doing new things.

There is nothing that limits peoples' lives so much as fear of the unfamiliar. That holds them back. But if they step out into the unknown, there are innumerable adventures waiting for them. Life never needs to be boring. If it is so, you make it so yourself.

Life is only boring when you make it that way, in this day and age there is no way reason for someone to be idle. It all depends on how many opportunities we take, and what we do in our free time.

Well written man , we all need to move away from our comfort zone at some point in life because if don’t we can never experience what true growth is like ….

It’s telling a grown up to remain in a day care for life

I totally agree with you. We have to get rid of the bad things that are living inside our minds. Then we can change our attitude. If we can change attitudes, we can change society.
