Challenges in Life ! Face it and get out of comfort zone.
It is but natural for all of us to aspire for a comfortable and happy life, but the excess of this ambition can have an adverse effect. The inner potential and the infinite possibilities within a person fail to manifest. Modern psychology says that a man's subconscious mind has immense potential. Indian spirituality goes further and talks about Supplemental Mind and advocates that each person has within himself all the abilities of the Almighty in a seed-forth. These latent abilities can manifest themselves but it requires treading a path sprinkled with innumerable challenges.
Only those who know how to face challenges, and who can tide through adverse situations with courage can taste success. A lazy and laid back person could never even dream of scaling such heights of success. He can only expect to see failure and disappointment. In fact, a person who
avoids challenges tends to be stuck in his comfort zone, where most of his possibilities for success get diminished.
It 'is Also popularly quoted that a comfort zone is a coffin for one's progress and acts as a deterrent for personality enhancement. This creates a barrier for the expression of innate talent and hence blocks all paths for growth. It prevents a person from scaling the heights of success that he is capable of and it remains to be an unattainable dream.
The comfort zone is a psychological state where a person is familiar with things around him, feels happy, peaceful, and secure. He thinks that he is in control of situations around him. In reality, these very same emotions curb his progress due to a lack of positive stress and inspiration which are required for one's development. This is why it is essential for a person to step out of his comfort zone. A meaningful life begins only outside the comfort zone.
Stepping out of your comfort zone means that you have to take up tasks that will nudge you out of your boundaries, those which are not very natural to you, those that challenge your abilities and qualifications, but those when taken up will manage to unravel your potential. Undoubtedly, this, too, is an art in which you choose to take up the right kind of challenges. Caution should, however, be exercised that you neither overdo it nor resort to stubbornness so that the consequences end up being dangerous to you.
Coming out of the comfort zone not only increase one's productivity but also enhances creative acumen.
