The mindset shift that changed my 20s.

[@micahsnow346]

I was thinking the other day, how self-confidence is really difficult when you’re young, because you’re trying to believe in a claim that you have no evidence for. Basically you have to have faith because you have no proof that you’ll succeed at whatever you’re trying. The fear of failing can be really overwhelming at times but that’s why it’s even more important to jump in

[@ZaritaTheFloridian]

This also happens when you are much later in life and turning your life around. It's never too late.

[@OxysLokiMoros]

Your childhood is the reason for those things. I have zero self confidence, because I had a horrible childhood. I can watch 100 KZbin videos about that topic, but there are things inside, that are really difficult to change. Secure, healthy people can't comprehend that.

[@ProductiveMusicandSounds]

So true.

[@ogandz]

Absolutely! This varies from childhood to childhood (person to person). Your environment while growing up contributes heavily to your confidence as an adult. You either have it or you work hard to attain it😊🫶

Some important points that I captured and will save for my reflection discussion: - It revolves around a simple motto: "Say yes now, figure it out later." - It's crucial to note that this mindset doesn't advocate for saying yes to everything indiscriminately. Instead, it emphasizes calculated risks-moments when a yes could lead to significant personal growth. - It's important to distinguish between genuine comfort and complacency. Saying yes to new experiences can provide that much-needed push to break free from the rut. -Whether it's quitting your job, going on an impromptu trip, or meeting new people, taking those first steps is crucial. -One key component of this mindset is embracing uncertainty.

As someone who is 18 and had just started creating videos on KZbin, I find that the mindset of "Say yes now, figure it out later" has made me enjoy life a lot more as I grow into my 20s soon. I was hesitant to go on a hike yesterday as I have the worst stamina and I get sick very easily, but I decided to go anyways! Turns out it was the best decision I've ever made cus I made new friends, experienced and documented one of the most beautiful view I've ever seen, and swam in the most mesmerizing waterfall river! So please, to others, do say yes now and figure it out later. Thank you for making a positive impact in my life Kariza.

Thank you for this video. I’m turning 30 this November, and watching this video made me look back in my 20s. As I bid goodbye to my 20, it’s quite a journey.

This is what i need a little push from others to change my life. You may not know, but your and Colts' videos are a ray of hope for me. It helps me to get out of my comfort zone and explore.

[@bigglesharrumpher4139]

I was very fortunate to know exactly what I wanted to do in my life from about age 7-8 , and by 30 had done them - nothing to do with money or career ....but then there was the 'What now' moment, I had done the fun stuff but needed to make money and I stumbled from one thing to another, but finally landed in a job that paid the bills and I was pretty good at. Since then I have found a couple of hobbies that made the dreary but well-paid job bearable, and got to 60 with no regrets. I told my kids - do what you want in life, you will figure it out as you go.......just be nice to people.

[@LucasEstevanSoares]

Hi Riza, my wife has sent me your channel a few days ago and I'm really proud. It's incredible to see a young filmmaker setting the tone for a new wave.

Kudos from Brazil.

So crazy that I randomly stumble across this video, when this is kinda the season I’m going through in life right now. I’m in my early 20’s, and kinda have that unsure confidence that you mentioned, while simultaneously being anxious and scared as hell about what comes next. But I’ve also been trying to be more open and optimistic about new experiences and choices in life as I feel I’ve been in one of those stagnant periods. “Say yes now, figure it out later” is actually such a great quote, and it’s crazy how much I align with that feeling, but have never been able to put it into words. Such a great video! :)

I'm so grateful to connect with other people my age who share a similar mindset.

[@minful-life-of-lizzy-88]

I have to agree that the things most worthwhile and shaping your self-confidence are the things you feel are right or are appealing to you. And I feel as I get further in life, the bigger the risks get because I can build on the confidence of the steps I took before me. Confidence and trust are just that: you trust it before their is proof and after a while you trust yourself because you start to realize you make the right choices because you listen to your intuition that says: I have no idea how I am going to get there but I want this. This has been THE MOST valuable lesson I have learned and I only truly got it 4 years ago. From starting my own business, to breaking up a relationship and getting into the one with the person I was in love for more then 10 years, to closing my business to be a housewife, to starting a garden to feed ourselves with for the entire year, to choosing to heal myself from cancer. And now I am dreaming of moving to Portugal to go live off grid and maybe even have babies (which is huuuuge for me).
