Why people are afraid to get out of their comfort zone? Mostly of us when we are already at ease in a situation where we are, we are afraid to get out of it specially when we thought it is already enough. This is usually most applicable to employees. I have met lots of people who always keep on saying that they will resign but after 2, 3, 4 even 5 years they are still in that company. When I got a job after I finished my studies, I said to myself that I will do my very best to be a regular employee on that company. Since I experienced the hardship in life before well until now 🤣, I want to make sure that I will have a stable job so that I will have a regular income that can provide all my needs. Having a kind superior and co workers that are easily to get along with are already a bonus when I became a regular employee. I thought I will be contented as a rank and file employee coz I can provide my needs and I can buy what I want. But there come a time that I feel bored in my everyday routine. Yes I am happy with my co workers and I am thankful for my job but I feel that there is something missing. Everytime that I will feel that boredom I will file a vacation leave to recharge and forget the thought that I want to quit. Coz at the back of my mind I want to look for another job that can fullfil the desire of having a better job but I am too afraid to leave my job. Simply because I am already comfortable with it and I do not want to get out of that comfort zone. I am afraid for all the possible negative outcome of my decision (if ever I leave) such as what if I will not become a regular employee , what if my co workers will not be friendly and other things. But after 2 and a half years of fighting for that desire of having a better job I decided to get out of that comfort zone. I got the courage because I dont have any other obligation aside from myself. It is different when you are still single when you are deciding about your life. When you found that courage you do not have to consider anyone aside from yourself. I understand those people who are afraid to get out of their comfort zone (because I have been to that situation), coz they think more of the possibilities of the negative outcome of whatever decisions they will make. And taking the risk is like a gambling, its either you win or lose, and mostly of us do not want to lose. Thats why we do not want to take those risk because we are afraid to start all over again.
