Inspirational Quote
Great things never come from comfort zones. -Unknown
The definition of a comfort zone is a psychological state in which things feel familiar to a person, and the person feels at home in their environment. Stress and anxiety levels are low in the comfort zone. Performance in this zone can be steady. Outside of the comfort zone lies the optimal performance zone. This is the zone in which growth occurs. There is greater stress in this level but also greater potential for growth. We cannot remain too comfortable. When we are comfortable, we do not progress to our potential. If we go beyond the optimum performance zone, we enter the danger zone. This is a region where our performance is negatively impacted by the high level of stress and anxiety. As an ASVAB tutor, I meet some people that become too complacent in life. I remind them that their comfort zone is not the place where true growth occurs. It is important to use discipline in life to push yourself forward. Be consistent. Be persistent. Aim higher and achieve.
