Getting out of your comfort zone can be challenging. But, if you want to bring your life to a better situation, sometimes getting out of your comfort zone is required. You can either get outside of your comfort zone by the unrequested experience of life or by your own intentionality.

Sometimes life will throw a curveball at you that immediately puts you in a situation out of your comfort zone. A surprise tornado. That unexpected diagnosis from the doctor. The tragic car accident. By putting 0% effort in, sometimes life will give you an opportunity to be out of your comfort zone.

But, sometimes life gets comfortable (what a privilege that is), and if you want your life to get better, you have to be intentional about finding a new path that might not be comfortable. This might be asking somebody on a date. Breaking up with somebody. It could be traveling somewhere new. Or, changing jobs.

Is there an invitation that life is giving you now to get out of your comfort zone?

Or, do you perhaps need to be more intentional about finding a new way to grow in your life to get out of your comfort zone?
