Comfort zones are most often expanded through discomfort.

Peter McWilliams

Comfort zones are deadly zones because you lose your true potential of what you can be, you start going with the status quo.

Greg Plitt

Most people move actually into high performance in a crisis because that creates the kind of focus that creates high performance.

David Allen

God is more concerned with conforming me to the likeness of His Son than leaving me in my comfort zones. God is more interested in inward qualities than outward circumstances - things like refining my faith, humbling my heart, cleaning up my thought life and strengthening my character.

Joni Eareckson Tada

We want to take ourselves out of our comfort zones; when you're in your comfort zone for so long, you only play to a certain level.

Toni Duggan

I don't think people should do anything to be popular. But maybe within reason they can step out of their comfort zones and do things to be more 'accessible'. Like taking drugs or drinking heavily to be cool.

Lindsay Lohan

I feel that people need to be jolted out of their comfort zones.

Saul Williams

During negotiations nothing is gained by attacking people's comfort zones.

Alan Sugar

People have to be pushed out of their comfort zones to be able to see things for what they are.

Kirti Kulhari

Harold Geneen

It's my job... to push people out of their comfort zones. But we got to have a reason to do it. We don't do it gratuitously.

Nancy Dubuc

the leader releases energy, unites energies, and all with the object not only of carrying out a purpose, but of creating further and larger purposes. And I do not mean here by larger purposes mergers or more branches; I speak of larger in the qualitative rather than the quantitative sense. I mean purposes which will include more of those fundamental values for which most of us agree we are really living.

Mary Parker Follett

"Stepping outside your comfort zone is supposed to feel uncomfortable because we're in new and unfamiliar territory. Being uncomfortable is a sign of success, NOT of failure! So if we are uncomfortably outside our comfort zones, then than means we are growing!!! And THAT is cause for celebration!" (modified from a passage in Roz Savage's "Rowing the Atlantic")

Roz Savage

I frequently find after a rehearsal of a performance that I have more breath, and can walk better and climb stairs better than I could before. It's as if I've expanded my lungs doing it. Basically speaking, conducting is quite a healthy profession.
