If you are about to ask someone on a date, catch a spider, or jump out of an airplane, do it without hesitation. After you have dealt with your fear, you can reinforce your success by treating yourself to a reward. This can be a break from interacting with other people or a physical treat.

The mere thought of stepping out from your comfort zone takes a lot of courage, and doing so can lead to anxiety. But, this is one of the best ways to learn courage. If you keep on doing the same thing every day in a routine, you are in your comfort zone.
