There are many times where we think that we live a structured life, that we don't really take too many risks. However, there are times where I feel daring and I am sure many other people do and do something a bit outrageous. Sometimes it works out, but other times, it backfires, but still it does give me satisifaction that I tried, that I stepped outside of my comfort zone. So how about you?

So many times outside the comfort zone is where the learning is at. There is risk in almost everything in life. To attempt to avoid all risk is to run from life itself. Hmmm?? Since you brought this up, what kind of trouble can I get myself into???? It will make a glorious story when I'm too old to do anything else.

Yes, that is a good point. Life is never all that stable to begin with and always changing. So, we might get pushed around on the outside of our comfort zone many times and never do it. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

I have left my comfort zone for a week of maximum..
I haven't left it for more than a week, and the days i felt are good after leaving the hometown, but it's not good to eat outside more than a week..
Leaving the comfort zone might be a challenging thing , but the other things should be considered before u leave the place..
I might be asked to relocate shortly now..

I'm not really the adventurous type but there are a lot of times that i stepped out of my comfort zone. I remember hanging out with friends. It was in the earlier part of college years. That's the first time i learned about picking up girls. I was used to getting introduced but that time i was taught how to do an approach and close the conversation successfully (get her number). To cut the story short, i closed 3 conversations and it was a success.

Learning valuable lessons like that might only be done by stepping out of your comfort zone. Maybe a little bit, maybe a lot but somewhat. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.
