Leaving comfort zone

Kitty
9 months ago

As I'll be 19 soon I decided to leave my comfort zone and answer the door yesterday. We had a Tesco delivery and when the guy knocked the door I surprised everyone - including myself - and answered it.

Normally I'll try to plan everything in advance if possible. That way I can work out what I can say beforehand, if I find myself in a social situation. This time there was no time to prepare.

But turns out I didn't need to. The delivery guy was actually so miserable he didn't speak, he communicated through grunts and if looks could kill I would probably be dead today. Lol.

After being momentarily brave I felt like I could take on the world... And then the phone rang and I immediately got triggered by the loud ringing of the phone and ran upstairs to my room in a cold sweat as anxiety started to dig in its claws.

I'm still proud for dealing with the delivery guy though Sweat smile 

How often do you momentarily leave your comfort zone and it's it worth it?

I think it can be worth it sometimes but not every time.

    That's really great to hear! Also I do sympathise with the Tesco delivery guy, honestly—I do sometimes communiate with grunts too.

    I think I maybe leave my comfort zone when I have nothing to do, well, other than sit in front of the computer or play bass. I wonder if I may have seen enough movies to speak fairly coherently...
