Today we will be talking about breaking your routines and what the importance of breaking your routines are.

And as Benjamin Franklin says, most people die by 25 but are not actually buried until 75.

And what does that mean? It means that most people develop a comfort zone and most people get into routines and they stay there for the rest of their lives and don't make anything great from themselves because of it.

Now, clearly, what I want to help you do is to break your routines, to break through your comfort zone in order to make something great of yourself.

Now, why do people have comfort zones? Why do people have routines? Well, because your brain wants to go on autopilot because of the fact, there's two things.

It wants to go on autopilot because of the fact that you have a brain that uses a ton of energy whenever you're using it.

And so it wants to go on autopilot so it doesn't have to use as much energy.

A perfect example of that is if you've ever driven home and then you get home and you're like, wait, how the heck did I just get here?

The reason why is because your brain is just an autopilot, it starts to do things. It wants to not have to think and not have to use a lot of energy in order to get certain things done.

So there's that reason, which is why you have routines and you have comfort zones.

And the second reason why you have a comfort zone routines is because your brain is designed to keep you safe. That's the only thing it's designed to do.

So whenever you've been doing something for a little while and you are still alive, your brain is saying to keep doing this means that I will stay safe.

If I don't break through this comfort zone, if I stay in this comfort zone for as long as possible, I at least know that I'm going to be alive because all your brain is designed to do is to keep you alive and keep you safe and keep you healthy.

Now, we don't need to worry about safety like we used to 50,000 years ago.

We don't have saber tooth tigers that are jumping out at us. So we need to figure out ways to break through our routines and to stop doing the exact same thing every single day.

We need to figure out ways to take ourselves out of our comfort zones because comfort zones is where dreams go to die.

No great idea or great person has ever come from staying inside of a comfort zone.
