Caution: Your Comfort Zone is Expanding are You Still Growing?

[Music] going beyond our comfort zones is a continual um activity opportunity task right however you want to look at it every time we go beyond our comfort zone the uncomfortable starts to become comfortable for us and our comfort zone expands so if we're doing it right we're constantly going beyond our comfort zone and then expanding our comfort zone and then going beyond our comfort zone again as we grow as individuals so it's really important to constantly be aware that we're now in our comfort zone again and we need to push beyond it we need to think of new things to try new things to do i'll give you a personal example um so i'm actually pretty introverted you wouldn't know it because i do all these videos and i'm pretty out there but the idea of cold calls talking to new people can be a little intimidating to me it used to be very intimidating to me but i found myself the other day talking to a random stranger on the phone there was an accidental call we never meant to call each other um and just starting to ask about their life because for all i knew they were someone that i could do something for impact and if i just asked a couple questions and got to know them better well who knows what could come of it so i started asking random questions to a stranger i accidentally ended up on the phone with something i never would have done a year ago ever i shared this story because that was comfortable to me so the fact that that was so uncomfortable a year ago now has me saying what's next if i can have that random conversation now how do i proactively seek more of those conversations or do things that are still uncomfortable to grow and expand my comfort zone so beware your comfort zone expands and if you don't keep looking past it you can stall out your growth so expand that comfort zone make it larger and larger and larger and keep expanding past it and that's how you have continual growth
