[@robichard]

I am 65 years and have been held back from living to my true potential all my life. I cried through the entire speech. What does that tell you about the lesson this girl has to teach.? To all you young people out there. Fear is the biggest dream stealer. It never goes away. But, you can change your relationship to it by conditioning yourself to act in the face of it. If do this, when you reach my age, you will not have the regrets I do.

My heart is heavy. You can still overcome your fears. I am 45 and I decided to try a new job that scared me. I didn't know what I was doing and I still want to give up but it has been worth it. You are still young in my book. Don't get stuck in that thought it's too late. There are people in their 90's getting college degrees or going back to get their high school diploma. Life is a gift.

To all you young people out there, please remember this. All your fears, self doubts, and insecurities are all in your head. When do the work to condition your mind to be free of all those disempowering thoughts and beliefs, you will be able to accomplish more than you can possibly imagine. This is universal truth. "As you think, so you will become".

Comfort is a drug. Once you get used to it, it becomes addicting. Give a weak person consistent stimulation, good food, cheap entertainment and they'll throw their ambitions right out the window. The comfort zone is where dreams go and die.

Im 26 and is at the end of my comfort zone. I just quit the job that i hated, left a relationship which i knew i deserved better. I cried, i was scared but im also excited for the new path that im gonna take. I truly believe everything happens for a reason, and when one door closes, the others open. Im proud of myself to be able to take proactive decisions over my life and hope everyone here is proud of their actions as well.

"I see life as a constant fight against your comfort zone" Well said!

[@elenaa3408]

The moment you begin to think differently from all your old thought patterns, then it's when you start to live your only truth. Some people say " I will get out of my comfort zone...and start living" but after some years you will be at the beginning of another comfort zone and so on...and on. So I don´t like to call it a comfort zone, I like to call it : "your purpose, your mission"and you will never ever find yourself in a comfort zone, and why? because living up to your only truth you will find yourself breaking boundaries and always looking to make new things each day because you have your only truth to live until your last day here on Earth. Peace to all!

[@anmolverma9318]

I am a student from India. I was searching for"what is wrong with me?", "why i am not achieving, what i want?" for a few days. Then, Today i found that i am tightly bounded to my comfort zone. I found this video on KZbin and it inspired me so much.i wept a lot by watching this video and forgive myself for what mistakes i made. Now, I'm feeling light and determined that i will push my comfort zone. I really felt connected to miss Yubing Zhang, thank you so much ma'am for being such inspiration.

I’ve lived in my comfort zone for as long as I can remember. Last year I told someone I was in love with them after 7 years of no contact. I was so afraid that I avoided the person for 7 whole years! I finally told them and they of course did not reciprocate my feelings, but now that I have taken the plunge, my heart is open and fearless. I will no longer hold my passion inside, but face it head on and wholeheartedly ❤️

[@jagdishhiranandani5467]

What makes you comfortable can ruin you. And what makes you uncomfortable will show you the way in life.

[@Raaniin]

I listen to this because I'm right now pushing myself out of my comfort zone. For whole my life I've lived with my parents. Last week I moved to another city to do my internship at a pharmacy. While I was there it was completely fine, but going back to my parents to visit gave my a lot of anxiety, so much that I can barley move or think. I could have chosen to do my internship a bit outside of my city, 1 hour from where I live, but I choose another city so I could train to live by myself. Everything is fine in the city I moved to, but visiting my parents made me regret my decision, because I feel I just want to be near them (we are very close). But at the same time I feel I'm being a coward because I'm so attached to my family. I guess this is what you go through when you're scared of the unknown. It is really hard actually, but I'm going try to push through so I can become more confident.

This was the biggest reality check for me. Wish I had done a Tedx on this, because once I stepped foot in Thailand, the reality check came in the worst ways. The amount of racism towards blacks and Indians here is unbelievable. I mean, no offense to the speaker, but China is also one of the most difficult countries to live in as a black man. However, when I came here and went through all the transgressions that lead to some of my darkest hours and days, something was born inside me.

I totally get her when she says it's hard for her to talk about her feelings to her parents. I'm 26, and I shared my feelings with my mum for the first time only 4 years ago. I was an off-site student living in a different city my parents did. I called my mum almost in tears and I told her I was feeling very bad for a girl and I needed to come back home immediately. I still have struggle with sharing my emotions with my family but making that call really made my day. I'm currently on a phase of life in which I'm looking for courage to leave my hometown and start a new life abroad. It looks so scary I sometimes experience a bad anxiety, but I really want to do it. When I am afraid of doing it, I will tell myself "It's not as scary as it looks".

I totally agree with what you said about our comfort zone. We are so afraid to think outside of the box that we don’t realize how much opportunity there is. And of course so true what you said about Asian parents. I still today find it hard to say too much on how I feel to my parents. The fear of dishonoring one’s parents has been so ingrained in our head that we value on that so greatly, we hold our emotions back. Kudos to you for being able to share.

when she said the last story was about her, for some reason I already started to cry!

[@kwilson5832]

Wow! What an incredible message, and delivered so eloquently. I wish I had realised this a few years ago. I was looking to buy my first home and was in a reasonable financial position to do so. I was anxious about buying the 'right' home and dealing with the process of buying it. The I learned there was a strong possibility my employer may be taken over by another organisation 25 miles away. At the time, I enjoyed my job but there weren't many progression opportunities. Looking back, I even remember asking a friend at the company that was taking us over to let me know of any suitable opportunities. But for some reason, I decided to delay buying a house until I knew where my job would be located. However, during that time, I did view a dream home which was amazing! It was a little more expensive than I wanted to spend, but it was affordable. But to buy it, I would have to leave my comfort zone, so I didn't. Fast forward 4 years to now. I find myself homeless and house prices have increased 40%. I'm struggling to find anything suitable within my budget, and interest rates have increased, there's a cost of living crisis, inflation is at the highest it's been for 40 years, energy costs are soaring and there's a war in Ukraine, threatening the supply of various commodities. I see my friends in their houses and am envious of them, just because they own their home, while thinking that I could have been in the same position if only I had taken the leap when I had the chance. As I look back, it's clear to see that I should have bought a home near the possible 'new' location for my job, or my 'dream' home (which was near the 'old' location and I doubt if I'll be able to afford ever again). If only I had thought about the pros and cons of each location, realised that I would never be in such a good financial position again and given myself a timescale to buy somewhere, then my life would be very different now. I wish that some of my more financially astute friends had given me 'a kick up the backside' so that I would have made more of an effort. My reluctance to leave my comfort zone has cost me over £100k (that's about three times the average salary). My inaction has also ruined some other people's lives and I'm a burden to some other people too. The amount I'll be spending on a house is about the same as I would have spent on the 'dream' home three years ago, but is nowhere near as nice. There's a risk of an economic recession, so property prices are likely to decrease after I've bought somewhere. All because I was complacent in my 'comfort' zone and too scared to make a decision that I know in my heart would have taken me out of my comfort zone and improved my life.

This is the position I'm in now. I was waiting for the housing market to improve before buying and now it's completely out of my abilities to buy a house. I'm still grieving because it's always been my dream to own a house. I don't think it's our fault for not leaving our comfort zones. There was no way we could know that things would get worse. Things could have just as easily gotten better and we would have been patting ourselves on the back for waiting and getting a better deal (or location, etc.). We are the victims of circumstance, and we aren't alone. All we can do now is move forward and focus on the best we can do with what we have.

I don't know why I listen this video second time. I am always open my conform zone, but until now, I open slowly, just step by step. Hopefully, after hearing her sharing, I will have more power to break through myself.

[@JadeCampbell40]

Thank you for this video. I needed this it brought me to tears.

What amazing life changing speech that could help people live in the unknown prison which crippled them from their destiny's

[@zavcantsing]

What a peculiar way to put it but makes sense HAHAH

[@Vimima3Gs]

thanks a lot for this wonderful but truthful talk... I am 18 years old and I came recently to Germany to live with my dad. not like am comfortable with him... Am not! and am sexually abused.. I just leave with him because I depend on him to sponsor my education and that's the only reason why my mother's family want me to leave there.. but I want to leave his house n not to be his responsibility anymore to safe myself from continously being abused... when I live , I won't have any money for allowance n my school will eventually stop because there is no one to sponsor me...my whole family is against me but am ready to take this step and leave this comfort zone.. I believe somehow someday I will continue my studies by the grace of God... thank you so much for your advice

I fear success? It can change a person either for the better or the worse. I fear having things good because all I've known is a hard life. I can protect myself and others. I will not let someone else in ever again. It's just the way it is and be wise to let it be. To even try to open my heart and then have it stabbed? I'm good. I don't know why most humans do that. I can still love you, protect you, support you but you will not get close. Nobody will. I won't allow it. I will push you away but I will be there when you need me.

[@hiromimaeda1526]

This is very inspiring. I'm starting to move out of my comfort zone by joining the committee election of my university but the fear is still holding me back sometimes thinking all the worst things that could happen. I will acknowledge the fear and breakthrough it. It's never as scary as it looks. I'll always remember that.

[@MsChelle_BIAM]

Wow I love this and can so relate. This brought tears to my eyes for I've been living in a comfort zone all my life and beginning to step out. Time to live for I am the end of my comfort zone. Thanks so much for this!

I see you introverts 👀👀

[@random-accessmemory9201]

I just quit mu job this month to push myself out of comfort zone. I badly need to hear this one right now. Thank you.

[@princemarora]

Verbally saying "I love you" is a western culture création. In many cultures around the world you can express things without say them. There are many effective ways to say "I love you" or "thank you" without saying the words. It is not okay to do things just because certain people do them, stay authentic.

[@charmainephasoana6850]

Sometimes that's what we need. It doesn't have to be equated to Western culture. We are humans and we need verbal assurance sometimes. Sometimes the presence of a person though verbal assurance sheds some heavy burden of feeling like you are not worthy of that person's attention. And for I do think it is very essential. Especially from your parents. But I hear your opinion too

[@lilybell82]

Thank you for this comment. It IS really not okay to do things just because certain people do them. That's wisdom I needed so much today💜

[@jdvn3599]

Good job on your speech! "Its not as scary as you think it is" the line i will try to think whenever I face a new skill I need to learn in school.
