How Do You Guys Deal With The Comfort Zone?

[HexNoir]

I'm mainly spitballing here. I'm curious as to what you guys think of the dreaded 'comfort zone', and how you've learned how to expand it. Has anybody ever felt like they built four walls around their entire life / existence? What did you do to get out of it? Are you supposed to just start freaking yourself out?

There is no wrong answer, and all insight is greatly appreciated.

I usually start to get out of my comfort zone or expand it when I think about the kind of life I want. When I visualize the 'better me' or 'future me' in great detail. When I'm in this mood I tend to become a lot more outgoing than usual and even fun. Problem is that reality (or a depressed state of mind) comes back at some point and wins the fight against the 'better me'. Then I'm back to staying inside my comfort zone, although sometimes I find that it did expand and remained so to some degree (for example I don't stop being friends with people I met during those rather optimistic times). :thumbup:
