So, thats why I wanted to share this post,just to let you guys know how its really feel after get out from comfort zone.?

What is a comfort zone?

“a behavioral state within which a person operates in an anxiety-neutral condition, using a limited set of behaviors to deliver a steady level of performance.” or in simple words, a state where we know what we do and not use so much energy and mind to it.

What & where is my comfort zone?

My comfort zone is my previous job. I'm been working on that job at the same company for 9 years and 4 months, it's been too long. For me to decide to get out from there is one of the hardest decision. This is due to I love the colleagues I'm working with, I know the environment there and many things I'm familiar with but I no longer feel I learn something for my career journey and I feel its not exciting anymore there so thats why need to change.

I tender my resignation letter on 24 December 2020 and I'm in 2 months' notice after that, which means I will be gone from that company on February 2021. Then, that February finally come even though I feel its too slow to come hahaha. The day finally come and upcoming days become more scary and uncertain.

So, how its really feel after I get out from comfort zone.?
