RE: COMFORT ZONE

I liked your take on the subject of comfort zones. You offered a perfectly balanced critique. I, too, have some thoughts on the matter, though they might seem crude to some.

Stepping out of your comfort zone can indeed lead to personal growth and reveal hidden potential. As my favorite author once said, “It’s amazing what you can do when you have to.” However, in my opinion, it’s also a form of mind-conditioning—a way to get people to act against their natural inclinations by presenting it as the norm. As a result, it can cause discomfort, trauma, and anxiety for some people.

I like the transition in your drawings, by the way, as if you're uncovering something while ending it by implying a new beginning :-))

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and nuanced take on the concept of comfort zones! I completely agree with you, it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. For some people, it can indeed cause discomfort, trauma, and anxiety.

I love how you phrase it as a form of mind-conditioning, where people are encouraged to act against their natural inclinations. This is a really important point, as it highlights the need for self-awareness and understanding of one's own boundaries and limitations.

And thank you for your kind words about my "drawings" I'm glad you appreciated the transition and the implication of a new beginning. That's exactly what I was going for – a sense of transformation and growth, while also acknowledging the importance of self-care and comfort.

Overall, I think we've had a fantastic conversation about comfort zones, and I'm so grateful for your thoughtful insights!

You didn’t just create great drawings; you also infused them with a thought-provoking message. Impressive👍

Thank you!
