But realizing that one is in the Comfort Zone is a good start and that realization helped me to get out and do the milk rounds by talking to recruiters all over Tokyo. Went for many memorable job interviews - like running around in the rain wearing a suit during absolutely sweltering Summer days and also got laughed at in interviews because I didn't know how to write up a resume. This leap out of the Comfort Zone was the first step to a career in Japan that would completely change my life within the next few months.
