Default Extending new pilot comfort zone?

I did the "airport to airport" thing that Andy mentioned. I have a
302/303, which made it very easy to always stay within glide of a
landable runway as I made my way cross-country. Kind of like adopting
a new "home" field every so many miles. Once you get out of glide
range from your true home field that first time, the anxiety about it
will diminish substantially. Have fun!
