Comfort Zone Dilemma

Sticking to routine is totally boring, right?

Having years spent in one place, from Monday to Friday, 08.00 a.m. to 17.00 p.m. and you do it regularly with similar activities day to day, does this question come to your mind?

Is it life all you want to be? 

It was fresh in mind the first day I joined this company. Firstly I stepped out from my boarding house and had spirit to do my best with all efforts that it needed to make me awesome in the workplace. I believe for sure that almost new worker who experienced the moment of ‘officially hired’ in their first day will have the same feeling as I am. Everything seemed good at that time, I was full of spirit and felt enthusiast to anything right in front of my face. What a feeling when you met new people, new friends, new environment and new things to learn about. Each day was great I think, because I found out new things came out by interaction, by communication and by world created as consequent of smart people I dealt with as my knowledge source. 

A day had been turned into month, few months just felt like yesterday and this month already expanded to years. The oxygent you inhaled in the same room for 8 hours a day was no more be different like the other days. You just saw nothing wrong with your life, even so much things that need to be complaint about, such as salary, personal attitude of your workmates, a boring boss and not debatable superior you had, but you only prefer to deal with rather than againts it. In this stage, I’d like to say “welcome to Comfort Zone Area”.

I’m so often to hear a very well-known sentence by Neale Walsh ‘Life begins at the end of your comfort zone’, but the problem is getting out from comfort zone is very uneasy. Trust me. I am so really deeply want to move forward but tons of unimaginable scenarios came over my head and drove me crazy. Lots of questions starting with ‘how if’ sat in my mind. How if another places not better than this one? How if the pressure in another place hit me more than this one? How if I eventually become more miserable in a new place. These questions actually has no answer because it doesn’t happent yet, but it scares me more than I realize. I spent hundred of days to brave myself take a step to out of my comfort zone, but unfortunately, here I am – still sit in the same chair, in front of same table and tumble with the same problem every day. Now I feel my life so damn flat, so lame and stuck.

I looked around to find out is there any body who feel the same as I am. The fact is, all of people surround me have different dilemma, even they also feel the same. Mostly it happens because of reasons to choose for survive in this place are heterogeneous. Here are some of main reasons based on my personal view. They  have no other option, less confident to compete in the new place & supportive environment that enliven them, and these three are my problem just know, I am on my way to gather my braveness to step out and no more want to look back with no regret, not even once. Wish me a better step ahead!
