Does being comfortable make you happy?
Staying in your comfort zone can result in boredom and discontent. Stepping outside of your comfort zone is uncomfortable... but it helps us learn, grow and go further.
Dr. Elizabeth Lombardo, therapist and author of Better Than Perfect, says people who regularly seek out fresh experiences tend to be more creative and emotionally resilient than those who remain stuck in routine.
“Breaking your own mold can only make you stronger and more confident to reach higher levels in your professional and personal life,” she says.
Being uncomfortable can be a great thing. It isn't easy but it's worth it.
Are you ready to break out of your comfort zone? I hope so!
