When you are pondering the decision to make a career change, many thoughts can come to your mind. One day you are excited about starting something new and explore more the potential you have to offer to the world. Another day you may catch yourself thinking it's a foolish idea or too much of a risky move. Why would you do that, right? Anyways, you must step out of your comfort zone if you want to get there, and there are ways to tackle this strategically once you understand how your comfort zone operates.
Simply said, your comfort zone is in every routine that you have already mastered, and those are the processes you are familiar with and are fixed in your daily life. Yes, your career is also one! Entering into a new field requires an understanding of new ways of working/thinking, learning about a new industry, or perhaps acquire a brand new skillset. All new routines.
This laborious task can become a lonely journey when no one around you can relate to your decision or has taken a similar step. That's why connecting with individuals in the same path is a vital instrument in this process. Being part of a community like peppercorn.ai can help you stick to your "uncomfortable" program by finding the right accountability partners to support each other in the process.
