Step Outside Your Comfort Zone

Stepping out of our comfort zone means a lot of things to a lot of people, but ultimately, it’s about broadening your perspectives, immersing yourself in new places and ideas, and learning about how other people and cultures live. Through new experiences, we can become more resourceful, more apt to rise to challenges, and more compassionate about situations others face.

If you’ve found yourself sticking to the same routine, you may inadvertently be closing yourself off to many of these amazing life lessons that ultimately can make you a better person. To really get out of your comfort zone, assess what really scares you. Is it the unknown food? The cultural differences? The language barrier? Getting lost? Pinpoint exactly what makes you nervous about getting out of your comfort zone, and commit to doing just that.

Chances are, you won’t get sick from trying new experiences and you’ll find yourself growing as a person. Trust us, it always better on the other side.
