How do you step out of your comfort zone? I used to be the kind of martial artist that was afraid to get too close and kept people at long range. To overcome this I learned to grapple.
I also started competing to get myself out of that complacent mindset that can occur when you train with the same people all of the time. I'm not a horribly competitive person so it took a lot for me to get out there...in fact I used to freeze (literally on the spot) when came time to do a gymnastics routine in front of judges or sing in church.
Personally, I think it is important to shake things up once in a while...what do you do to shake things up?:ultracool
