有一句话说的好Lifebeginsattheendofyourcomfortzone，真正的人生从你离开舒适的环境开始。如果在新的一年里，你想寻求一些突破，离开你的舒适圈就是最重要的一步。HowDoYouGetYourselfOutofYourComfortZone?如何迫使自己走出舒适圈Methodologically,gettingoutofyourcomfortzoneentailsdoingwhateveritisthatmakesyouuncomfortable.理论上来讲，要走出舒适圈你需要做很多让你感到不舒服的事。Thismeansdoingthingsthatyouresist,hate,orevenfear.Aslongasyoudothat,youwillnaturallyexpandyourcomfortzone.这些事会让你感到反感、厌恶甚至恐惧。但只要你有意识去做，你就会发现你的舒适圈在慢慢扩大。However,forsomeonetowanttopushhim/herselfoutofhis/hercomfortzoneconstantly,toalwaysbeinthefaceofdiscomfort,uncertainty,andresistance,ANDbeokaywiththat,thereneedsbeareason,aspark,afuel,todrivehim/herforwarddespiteresistances.Thisreasoncanbeapassionhe/sheistryingtopursueoravisionhe/sheistryingtorealize.走出舒适圈意味着安全感的缺失、不确定性以及各种阻力。所以一个迫切想要走出自己舒适圈的人，一定需要一个理由或动力来驱使他去冲破阻力，持续前进。这个理由可能是他一直想追寻的热情，也可能是渴望实现的愿景。Knowingthisreasonisactuallymoreimportantthanlearningtipsandstrategiestoexpandone’scomfortzone,becauseonceyouaredrivenbyavisionbiggerthanyouandaforcebiggerthananyother,youwillnaturallydowhateverittakes,includinggrotesquelyexpandyourcomfortzone,toachievethatvision.找到那个理由会比学习一些方法秘诀更加重要。当比自我更重要的梦想激励你时，当一种超越其他任何事的动力驱使你时，你就会不惜一切代价去实现这个梦想，其中当然包括走出舒适圈。Forexample,Ihavelongbeendrivenbymypassiontohelpothersgrow.Thispassionhasledmetoquitawell-payingjobin2008(atthestartofafinancialcrisisnoless),startupmybusinessfromaplaceofzeroknowledgeandcredibility,unabashedlypitchcollaborationideastoothers,bepubliclyfeaturedinthemedia,publicspeakinfrontofmasses(assomeonewhoisanaturalintrovert),networkwithstrangers,andlayoutmylife,ofallitsupsanddowns,transparentlyonmyblog.以我为例，我一直都渴望着帮助别人成长。带着对此的热情，我在2008年辞掉了一份薪资不菲的工作（尽管那时刚爆发金融危机），开始了一份全新的事业。那时我既没有专业知识也缺少公信力，但我依然厚着脸皮跟别人谈合作，在媒体上曝光，在众人面前做演讲（我是一个很内向的人），和陌生人拉关系，在博客里展示我生活的点滴，各种起伏。AllthesearenotactivitiesthatIwouldnormallydo.Alltheseactivitiesusedtobewayoutsidemycomfortzone(untilIdidthemandmadethempartofmycomfortzone).Infact,itwasnottoolongagowhenIhadlittleinterestinentrepreneurship,publicspeaking,gettingmediacoverage,networking,etc.上述的事情我以前都很少做，因为超出我舒适圈的范围（现在我已经将这些事扩展到我舒适圈范围内的事了）。说实话，就在不久前我对创业、公共演讲、媒体报道、人际交往等一点兴趣都没有。Yet,Ididthoseactivities,amdoingthemtoday,andwillcontinuetodothemonalargerscale,becausetheyarenecessarytorealizemybiggervisionofcreatingaunitedworld.Attheendoftheday,Iwanttoreachouttoallsevenbillionpeopleintheworldandenableeveryonetoachievehis/herhighestpotentialinlife,andIwillneverstopuntilthathappens.但是，我以前做过的、现在正在做的、以及以后会更大规模做的那些突破自我的事都是为了实现我创造更和睦世界的梦想。我的最终目标是帮助全世界70亿人激发出自己的潜能，在实现目标之前我都不会停止努力。Ifitmeanshavingtodothemostpainfulandmostuncomfortableofthings,thensobeit—Iwilldothem.Ifitmeanshavingtostretchmycomfortzonetotheinfinitemaximumlevel,thenthatisexactlywhatIwilldo.Iwillcrosswhateverthechasmsarebetweenmeandmyvisionandmakeithappen.即使这意味着我必须完成最痛苦的任务，挑战最不舒服的工作，我也会接受，尽管放马过来吧。如果我必须将我的舒适圈扩展到最大限度，我会毫不犹豫那样做。不管在现实与梦想面前都多少鸿沟，我都会奋力跨越，到达彼岸。Directingthisbacktoyou,whatisyourpassionorgoal?Whatisthevisionyouwanttoachieve?Whatistheendobjectiveyouwanttoattain?回到你身上，你的激情在哪里？目标是什么？有什么愿景？最终的目的又是什么？Ifyoucanidentifywhatisitthatyouwanttopursue,whatisthatvisionyouwanttoachieve,andwhatistheendobjectiveyouwanttorealize,youcanthenusethattofuelyouinyourgrowth.Bylettingyourselfbeinspiredbywhatyouwant/lovetodo,youwillnaturallybeokaywithdoingthethingsyoudislike/resist/hate/feartorealizeyourdream.Youwillsimplystepoutofyourcomfortzoneandmakethingshappen.Thisisafarsuperiorandsustainableapproachthanblindlypushingagainstfearforthesakeofit.如果你能找到追求的目标与梦想，你就有了成长的动力。为了能做自己想做的事情这个目标，你会自然而然地做那些你讨厌、排斥、恐惧的事情。你会一步一步地走出舒适圈，把一切变为现实。比起盲目地为了克服恐惧而去克服恐惧，找到动力是种更加高明而持久的方式。Asforspecifictipsandstrategiestonudgeyourselfoutofyourcomfortzone,here’swhatIhavetoshare:对于如何推动自己走出舒适圈，以下有一些具体的方法：Movetowardsyourfear(ratherthanawayfromit).主动克服恐惧，而不是逃避。Thismeansifyoufeelfearfulaboutsomething,thenfeelthefear,andboldlydoitanyway.Yourfeardictatesthethingsthatlieoutsideofyourcomfortzone.Bysteppingintotheemotionoffear,youareliterallyexpandingyourcomfortzone.当你对某件事有恐惧感时，直面这种感觉，大胆去做。你的恐惧感表明了这件事是在你的舒适圈之外的，所以在你克服恐惧时，你已经开始扩张你的舒适圈了。Takeactionsdifferentfromwhatyounormallydo.打破习惯，换种方式去做事。Everylittlethingyoudothatisadeviationfromyourusualroutineisonestepoutsideofyourcomfortzone.Forexample,tryadifferentroutetowork.Orderadifferentdishfromyourfavoriterestaurant.Speaktothatcolleaguewhomyounormallywouldnottalkto.Emailthatguy/girlyouliketosayhi.;)做套路之外的事情，不管多小的改变，你都在一点点走出你的舒适圈。比如你可以换一条上班的路、尝试一种新的菜品，或是和很少交流过的同事聊天、给偷偷喜欢的人发个信息。Fallinlovewithdiscomfort.试着爱上不安的感觉。Thewholeessenceofmovingoutofone’scomfortzoneisaboutlearningbeokaywithbeinguncomfortable.Betteryet,learntolovetobeuncomfortable.WheneverIfeeluncomfortable,Iknowit’sagoodthingbecauseitmeansthatI’mgrowing.Idon’tresistthatfeelingofdiscomfort;rather,Iembraceit.走出舒适圈的关键在于试着克服不安的感觉。更近一步，你该学着去爱上这种感觉。当我感到不安时，我会暗示自己这是件好事因为我在成长。我不会排斥不安感，相反我会拥抱它。Constantlytrynewthings.不断尝试新事物。Makeapointtotrysomethingneweveryweek.Itcanbeassimpleasreadinganewbook,tryingrockclimbing,orsomething.I’malwaysopentodoingdifferentthings,aslongastheyfallwithinmypersonalagenda.Infactasapersonalprinciple,Iwillalwaysgivesomethingatleastoneshottoob
