Reach Out of Your Comfort Zone with Andy Molinsky Happen To Your Career - Meaningful Work, Career Change, & Career Design

Sure.
Feeling safe and at ease is great and all, but what goals have you ever achieved by staying in your comfort zone??
We’re willing to bet on not many at all.
Nobody ever achieves much by staying in their comfort zone.
WHY?
Well, achieving goals requires you to aim for something just a little bit out of your reach.
Having a goal makes you look forward to something attainable that may not be in your comfort zone (at the moment).
The question of how and when to reach out of our comfort zones comes up.
When it comes to career change, more likely than not you’ll be faced with the choice to break out of your comfort zone to progress down a new path that may be full of unknowns.
You can look at your career change in one of two ways:
An exciting opportunity to experience something new and grow your skills and knowledge A big unknown that causes you to feel uncomfortable with the wonder of the what ifs that lead you to revert back and settle in your current job situation But, the benefits of getting comfortable with feeling uncomfortable far outweigh staying in the little bubble of your comfort zone.
Today, Andy Molinsky - an expert on behavior in the business world and author of the new book, Reach: A New Strategy to Help You Step Outside of Your Comfort Zone, Rise to the Challenge, and Build Confidence, joins us on the podcast. He shares insight on:
The 5 key challenges underlying our avoidance tendencies when it comes to uncomfortable situations How to overcome these challenges to achieve your career change goals The surprising discoveries you make about yourself as you continue to face your fears by stepping out of your comfort zone Listen to my chat with Andy on how to Reach Out of Your Comfort Zone to learn the steps you can take to develop a framework to get comfortable turning whatever you are most afraid of doing and positioning yourself to achieve your goals in your career and life.
