1. What is a comfort zone?
Modern psychology divides human perception of the external world and projection of inner images into three areas: panic zone, learning zone, and comfort zone. Panic Zone : This zone refers to knowledge or things that are beyond your ability to cause severe psychological discomfort and a high likelihood of crashing or giving up. People in panic zones cannot learn. Learning area: There is a certain challenge for you, it makes you feel uncomfortable, but not too uncomfortable, which is what we often say uncomfortable. The learning area is a field that we seldom touch or even set foot in, full of novel things, where we can fully exercise ourselves and challenge ourselves. Therefore, the learning efficiency in this area is very high, and it is really learning. Comfort zone: There is no difficult knowledge or things that you are accustomed to, and you can be in a comfortable state of mind. For example, when we read a book, if the content of the book is familiar to us and fully in line with our existing world outlook and outlook on life, this book is in our comfort zone.
The performance of the comfort zone
In normal life and work, this "comfort zone" is where we spend the longest time.
For example, work that is repeated every day, you can do with your eyes closed.
For example, when I get home, I will lie on the sofa and use my mobile phone to watch Korean dramas that make me cry.
For example, sleeping in a hurry during the holidays is a serious dwelling in the personal world.
We have developed too many habits and lifestyles of one kind or another, allowing ourselves to roam in a comfortable world and slowly consume the few lives that belong to us.
We have heard too much about the story of the frog boiled in warm water, but because we have heard too much and participated in too much, we have lost our sense and touch.
3. Get out of your comfort zone
3.1 Stay away from enemies on the way to growth
Choosing comfort is the biggest enemy of a person's growth. For example, a person who is addicted to sleep chooses to sleep because when he sleeps, he does not have to do anything or think about anything. He puts himself in a complete comfort zone, thus wasting time and youth.
The biggest comfort zone trap in China is our exam-oriented education. Through continuous practice and memorizing formulas, students can reach the "comfort zone" of the test, and they can immediately think of the problem-solving ideas when they see the test questions within the scope of the test. Therefore, our students have adapted to the state of learning in this comfort zone. Once they step into the society, they will show a strong sense of discomfort when faced with various situations that break into them.
3.2 Growing up in "self-abuse"
In fact, we also have a group of people in our lives who seem to have a miserable life every day haha. Tossing this project today, tossing the certificate tomorrow, the word "stable" seems to have never existed in their dictionary. Someone will always tell them "Brother, why are you tossing so much every day, like me, I will go to my hometown, and my wife and children will be on the kang head every day, how wonderful!". But growing up is never a comfortable thing. Growth is about constantly portraying yourself. The so-called "engraving" focuses on the word "engraving", and "engraving" requires you to slash yourself with a knife and a knife, and it hurts to think about it. But only then can we become who we want to be.
In fact, the so-called "self-abuse" is to keep yourself in an environment of constant stimulation, because only by constantly receiving stimulation can you always know your own shortcomings.
3.3 Don't always think about success
Once asked "what do you think of success", it is estimated that many people will say that they don't have to work and have money to spend, and some even define their success as earning enough money to play games at home every day. So in the minds of these people, playing games has become a thing with a high sense of value, and the sense of value is even higher than that of work. Obviously, these people will focus on playing games when they work, how can they work well? ?
So if you want to keep growing, don't take your self-confessed success as your ultimate goal, and keep making progress is the truth.
