Kristen Butler's "The Comfort Zone" offers a refreshing take on personal growth and happiness that challenges conventional wisdom. Just outside your comfort zone is the survival zone. This is the place where you are pushing yourself to put in outsized effort, and making decisions based on stress, fear, and uncertainty. In the survival zone, it is easy to make short-term decisions that jeopardize long-term health and well-being, because daily life is chaotic, driven by circumstances that feel beyond your control.

The Three Zones of Living: Complacent, Survival, and Comfort and what determines which one you are living in.

Remember the fable of the tortoise and the hare? Which one wins? That's right! The underdog tortoise. Why? Think of the tortoise's shell as its comfort zone. People who race, unprepared (physically, emotionally, etc.) into the unknown, find themselves lost and in trouble when the unpredictability of life hits them in the face. But when you bring your home with you, you can weather anything. That’s what living in the comfort zone is all about. It is moving and growing at your own pace, in a direction you really want to go, and not leaving yourself behind to do it. After all, it’s doubtful the tortoise could enjoy the journey without its shell. Neither can you truly enjoy life’s journey from outside your comfort zone. The Comfort Zone is not a static place. In fact, if we allow it, our Comfort Zone will continually grow and expand. It is always becoming more.”I also appreciate how personal the author gets in this book. It's clear that she wrote this book with the intention of helping others, and it shows in every chapter.

Your comfort zone is NOT the danger zone! This paradigm-shifting guide shows you how to harness the power of joy, creativity, and ease to create the foundation for building your best life. I got this book yesterday. And I was really skeptical ◔̯◔ about the main idea of this book. This is a masterpiece! 🏆by @positivekristen . I've always thought that forcing someone out of their comfort zone will only stress them out, they feel depressed. I always want to read something that supports the idea, "By remaining in our comfort zones and gradually stepping outside of them, we can evolve". Flip through any motivational or self-help book, and you’ll likely come across some version of this core message: You’ve got to push yourself beyond your comfort zone to accomplish anything worthwhile. The author heard these messages early in childhood, and embraced the idea that unless she pushed herself, lived on a growth edge, and leaned into her discomfort, she’d never achieve her goals. We’ve all heard the truism that ‘growth happens outside of your comfort zone.’ Well, Kristen Butler is here to dispel this and show you the power of returning to what’s comfortable to create a life you love. This phenomenal and compassionate handbook will give you the tools you need to thrive from right where you are by expanding your comfort zone. That’s exactly what Kristen has done for herself—and she is now inspiring millions around the world to live a life full of abundance and joy.”Because ultimately, each finish line is also a starting point. And when you’re in your comfort zone, you can meet each new challenge you take on with purpose and passion. Confronting these negative feelings takes courage. But like the tortoise, courage is much easier when you can feel at home in whatever circumstances you happen to be. Living in the safety and certainty of your comfort zone means fully accepting that everything you are right now, already, is enough. It also means resisting the temptation to abandon yourself just to cross some imaginary finish line a little faster. Relationship Tools—including maneuvering luminary and gloominary relationships, turning competitors into compellers, and defining clear boundaries

The Create from Comfort Process—including clearing a safe internal space as a foundation for self-expression and joy, defining the expanded life you wish to live, and acclimating to even your wildest desires in ways that are natural and easy When you’re not in a place where you feel fulfilled, authentic, and connected to the things that truly matter to you, then you’re living in either the survival zone or the complacent zone.

Take a moment and imagine a time in your childhood when you had trouble doing something, like your math homework or learning to ride a bike. What kinds of things did people around you say about it?
