The Jim Fortin Podcast - E131 - You Stay Stuck In Life Because Your Brain Traps You In Comfort Zones

Yep, you read that right, your brain keeps you trapped in your comfort zones.

I don’t want to give you all the details here because I have to save some of the good stuff for the episode but as crazy as it sounds, it’s not your thinking that keeps you trapped, it’s your reptilian brain.

I have been listening to several of your podcasts for a while. Your perspective resonates with me! Anxiety from the ‘threat’ of wanting to leave my ‘comfort zone’ has trapped me for decades! Which I never recognized as a built-in safety/protection mechanism that always delayed/stopped me from making changes! I must learn to ‘step outside’ my box, starting with small doable actions that are easier to do and achieve and build on them!
‘Make my bed’ and similar actions every day are good places to start! Thanks!

Great stuff! The "comfort zone" is truly the core of our inner struggles as humans.
