Most everyone these days knows what a comfort zone is. My definition is the place, environment and tasks those we have learned to do and feel comfortable with--a comfort zone.
Lots of people feel devastated when they have lost a job as their comfort zone no longer exists. In other words, those time, place, co-workers, tasks which have been performed on those job don't exist any more. It's an uncomfortable place to be in. There is no sense of direction
However, if we as workers realize those a comfort zone can disappear at any time, it is important to get out of our comfort zone while working. It does not take lots of money to be adventurous in looking at what other people do.
When we establish a reason to find out about other's jobs, we can understand job roles and skills from someone else's perspective, thus enhancing our own. It means talking to peolple, volunteering for projects out of our own expertise, and being curious about what other people do.
These activities can help us to understand those those comfort zone of the past, may be a prison in disguise. Being more open to various experiences and people can help us to understand those those grass we may covet on those other side of the street, is really just grass; someone else's comfort zone. See your "zone" as something you can change constantly. That actitivty will keep you on your toes!
