Career Transition: Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone

Mining Resources Industry | The feeling of familiarity and having a routine in our career gives us a sense of stability as we feel safe and contented with what our profession continually provides. Day in, day out, the same happens and as time goes by we then realise that we haven’t progressed too far; which is one of the effects of staying in the comfort zone.
You tend to miss out new challenges and experiences that are essential for our growth. It pays to take that leap of faith. Truly, Career Transition is Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone.
