I can't tell you how many times I have used this unique perspective offered by Brian Grazer. I loved the idea of disrupting our comfort zones. It's always something I embraced but could never really articulate - thankfully Brian talks of it so well.

Last year I served as an Americoprs (like the domestic PeaceCorps) volunteer in San Jose CA via City Year. City Year has a lot of little philosophies that it tries to get its Corps members to embrace. They like to package them in cute little sayings. An example is "Do 3 Squishy Things a Day" - squishy meaning uncomfortable.

I love this.
