Comfort Zones Can Stunt Your Growth
Don’t Miss an Opportunity for Growth
Have you ever known someone who has been so buried in their comfort zones, that they have stop absorbing new information. They seem to hang on to ideologies that are no longer applicable in today’s world. They have become so detached from the present and are seemingly still living in the past. Could this person be you?
There are many ways that people can get stuck in this rut but the most common among them is that they have stopped learning and even worse, they are not willing to learn. Throughout the entire human experience our hunger for knowledge takes us to new heights. But if we don’t feed ourselves with knowledge, all opportunities for growth come to a screeching halt.
As an adult re-entering college, the one thing that I look most forward to is expanding my scope beyond my immediate circle. I learned a long time ago, that my immediate circle and consensus among that circle does not constitute a world view. Therefore, the scope of my knowledge is limited by my surroundings if I don’t seek other outlets for learning new things.
If you find yourself stifled by your own comfort zone, try stepping outside of that zone every once in a while. Knowledge is power. You stop seeking it, you stop growing.
