In Chapter 11 of 19 in his 2012 Capture Your Flag interview, standup comedian Matt Ruby answers "What is Your Comfort Zone and What Do You Do To Break Free of Living In It?" Ruby notes how his comfort zone is actually being in an uncomfortable place. His life is always about doing new things, moving to new places, trying new stuff, and hanging out with new people. After performing comedy for over five years, Ruby finds himself trying to stick with things more often and more fully embrace who he has met and what he has done.
