d to. It determines the type of friends we make or people we associate with. It determines a life style. we accept or reject. Young people are very adaptable: they can adjust to changing comfort zones with ease. They can socialize with homeless people in the morning and be equally at ease at a formal banquet in the evening. As we age, the ability to adapt to wide-ranging comfort zones becomes more difficult. Social prejudice narrows the comfort zone range. The comfort zone can be a decision making tool. Comfort zones are directly related to our dreams or goals, which is associated with self-fulfilling prophecy(预言). In order to grow and change, we must first be discontent with our current comfort zone. We must realize that all meaningful and lasting changes occur first in daydreaming and then they work their way into reality. The more clearly and vividly we fantasize our dream, the stronger and more real the pictures on the subconscious level will become. Once our subconscious accepts this image and its expectation, it will go to work, searching for a way to bring the dream into reality. If we feel that these things are too good for us, we will find ways to fail. If, however, we intentionally imagine the change we want, build an expectation of the change mentally and emotionally, and we will find ways to acquire dream and, when mentally ready, it will arrive faster than we ever thought possible. For some people, problems, suffering, poverty, bad breaks are their comfort zone. They find comfort in finding fault and complaining about their misfortune. The same is true for businesses. Management and workers have grown used to seeing things go wrong and expect them too. Management finds comfort in finding fault with workers and vice versa. Note if the comfort zone we are seeking is beyond our current income, then, we need to develop a service that has greater value than our current one. Money, power and influence are not goals: they are rewards only for personal achievement.

Artists are sometimes able to capture this quicksilver, short emotional response. I have a friend, Robert Grossman, an accomplished artist who draws regularly for Forbes, Newsweek, Sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone, and other popular publications. Bob has a unique gift for capturing not only the physical appearanceof his subjects, but zeroing in on the essenceof their personalities. The bodies and souls of hundreds of figures radiate from his sketch pad（素描侧） . One glance at his pictures of famous people, you can see,for instance, the insecure of arrogance of Madonna, the boyishnessof Clinton, the awkwardness of GeorgeBush.

Sometimes at a party, Robert will do a quick sketch on a cocktail napkin of a guest. When he ’s finished drawing, he puts his pen down and hands a napkin to the guest. Often a puzzled look comes over the subject ’s face. He or she usually mumbles some politeness like, “ Well, er, that ’s great. But it really isn ’t me. ”The crowd ’s convincing echo of “ Ohyes it is! ” drowns down the subject, who is left to stare back at the world ’s view of himself or herself in the napkin. Once I askedRobert how he could capture people ’s personalities so well. He said, “ It ’s simple. I just look at them. ” Almost every fact of people ’s personalities is evident from their appearance, their posture, the way they move.

First impressions are indelible. Because in our fast-paced information-overload world, multiple stimuli bombard us every second, people ’s heads are spinning. They must form. quick judgments to make senseof the world and get on with what they have to do.
