As a coach, it is very rewarding to see someone expand their belief in themselves. Then to use their new confidence to go outside their comfort zone, and find a new level of success.
So many people are stuck in their comfort zone. They don’t see a reason to cross the boundary. But the motivation to change can only come from within. It can be very frustrating when we see a friend, a co-worker, or a family member not living up to their potential.
If you are inclined to help a person get beyond their comfort zone, here are three basic steps to consider.
1) Help them define, and bring clarity to their dreams for the future. You may have to draw out a new future for them by asking questions, discovering their strengths, and their passions. Let it be their dream you coax out of them, not the goals you want them to achieve.
2) See them as they could be, not as they are. See them as if they had already accomplished their dream. Treat them as they will be.
3) Help them find wins that move them forward. Leaving the comfort zone can be very difficult. Help them find the first small steps that will lead to success.
