Practices that may help
- The Comfort Zone Model: How to Grow Without Burning Out
The comfort zone model maps experience into three concentric rings — comfort, growth (or stretch), and panic — and argues that meaningful development happens in the growth ring, where challenge is real but not destabilising. The framework is a clinical heuristic rather than a rigidly studied model; its practical value is in helping people calibrate how much novelty to take on at once. - Keep a zone journal to track boundary movement
Record zone experiences weekly so you can see your comfort zone actually expanding over time.

When you overshoot and shut down, return to the edge from the comfort side, not the panic side.
