Success Always Lies Outside Our Comfort Zone, How Willing Are You To Go Get It?

outside our comfort zoneI know we all have heard it no matter your profession. We have to step outside our comfort zone to be success or achieve more!  So many people stay trapped in the comfort zone or what they are accustomed too! But, how many have found success when they took that step?

I know it can be scary; I’ve been there as well! Taking that first step into what may be the unknown can be downright frightening whether it’s stepping outside our comfort zone into a new position, a new sports team, or even starting a new business.

Use me as an example, I hated writing and English, never liked it in school much less with writing patient care reports for 20 years! You might know of the S.O.A.P. or CHART format we were required to follow. Well, I can say 75 blog posts ago, I took that step and proudly say this is my 75th blog post!! And one by one they are improving! How did I do it? Here you go:

The 3 Main Components of a Comfort Zone:

  • The Habit Zone
  • The Necessity Zone
  • The Discomfort Zone

The Habit zone is where we are most of our time; it’s your current comfortable area. This is the area you find most comfortable and it’s your everyday experience and knowledge that allows you to, live day-to-day comfortably. In this zone when something goes wrong you have trained yourself to correct it back to your normal habits.

The next Zone is the Necessity Zone, this zone is right next to the Habit zone but you take little risks that can be uncomfortable. In necessity these are small risks that come with little risk but you know that they are a necessity to provide for yourself and your family. They can be anything that you are not familiar or have not been successful with in your past but you know you have to take action and cannot avoid them.

And then we come to the Discomfort Zone, here is where you will be uncomfortable. This is the area or zone that you are not familiar with at all and everything is totally new to you. This is the zone where you have the feeling of being completely outside our comfort zone and the feeling of anxiety, nervousness, and maybe fear of the future all may overcome you!

So, what are you going to do to be successful? Are we going to step outside our comfort zone now? What if you did things daily for 45 or 90 days that made you uncomfortable and they then became comfortable? Would you be willing to spend the 45 or 90 days on it?
