Comfort Will Ruin Your Life
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 05. 2024
- We usually avoid difficulty whenever we can, but I try to do something difficult every single day.
In this video, I’ll explain the three main reasons behind why I’ve chosen this approach.
And it all starts with the comfort zone.
When we're in our comfort zones, we're not pushing ourselves.
At the first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong with that.
Why would we voluntarily put ourselves in a position of struggle, if we don't have to?
But if we only live our lives in comfort, we might be unknowingly doing ourselves an injustice.
Hopefully by the end of the video you will be inspired to leave your comfort zone and do something difficult today yourself.

Hey everyone!
Yes, all is well and I'm actually still alive.
Whether you're an old subscriber or you've just stumbled upon the channel, you might have noticed it's been quite a while since the last upload.
Roughly a year ago, I encountered some copyright issues, which made the channel temporarily inaccessible.
Luckily it was all sorted out and the channel was made available again.
But even with the issues resolved, I didn't create any new content for quite a while.
To be completely honest, I fell out of the video creation routine and instead spent my time doing other things that I found compelling. Content creation was simply pushed to the side.
I was still working on videos, but since other activities were taking most of my time, barely any progress was made on them.
However, I'm now finally returning to revive this channel, starting with this video.
I'm going to keep it on a smaller scale, so videos probably won't be uploaded as often as before, but I'm happy to announce that I'm back to making them regularly nonetheless.
Finally, I want to thank each and every one of you for your continued support over the years. It means a lot.
I hope you're all doing well in these turbulent times and are still trying to become better than yesterday :)
BTY
Great To See That U r Back Sir..
Man! I really missed you a lot. Thank you for everything. My bro, my love 💖 Be there always, Stay safe
Finally after a year for waiting him to return
And when we needed him the most, he returned
You know i liked you contact so much and that line "Better than yesterday" i use to right this line on each of my books front page when i start a new book of my academic studies!!
I really like this phrase:
“Your comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there.”
“Short term pain but long term gain” beautifully stated
How about, no-pain and all gain?
Sounds better to me.
Try meditating.
@@evanfiend Or, how about, suffer briefly so that you don't have to suffer more than otherwise necessary? That sounds better to me than meditating.
Let us hear you preach this garbage hypocrisy when you are sentenced to prison for life for the activities you do outside your comfort,
like millions of people throughout the world are, including the USA, for protesting and fighting against evil unjust corrupt laws and governments,
in spite of their fear of leaving their homes to protest and fight back.
@@evanfiend Agreed. Except for the meditation bullshit.
@@theultimatereductionist7592
Meditation isn't bullshit. You are troubled. You need it the most. Your kind are the worst. I would know. I've been where you are. 13 years ago.
"Life is pain. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling you something." ~Dread Pirate Roberts
Why?! Why does life have to be pain?! I didn't sign up for this shi.......
@@daisylavender5275I also question this.
@@AmeliaPlayz hahaha you actually did, everything that you decide to do adds up to what you become in 6 months, 1 year, 3 years and eventually a lifetime...life is what we choose.
Comfort is so addictive for me. It's hard to even look back. I've been a hard worker since school till college and I went into depression during my college years just trying to be a good student academically. Now I've found a simple yet decent work. And I've been living happier than ever. A feeling I've not felt in a long time since childhood.
Same here.. After trying to run different businesses and school on the side, i got burned out.. Fell into heavy drinking followed by depression. To get out of a rut, I got a simple job that I eventually got really good at. And that's probably the happiest I've ever been. Maybe because my job had awesome co-workers, played a role in that too.
Since I was a child, I had so much responsibility that should have not been placed on my shoulders. As an adult, I had even more responsibilities. I am finally retired but I have to deal with medical issues that are serious and, likely, genetic. Any chance I get to get into my comfort zone, I will do it. After dealing with a lot of fake or toxic friends from the past (I don't have them in my life anymore), I did decide to not bother meeting anyone new or make any new friends. This has allowed me to concentrate on getting to know my current friends more than before. They have been good friends through the years and there is no way I'm going to bring people that could try to hurt me anymore. I'm no longer overwhelmed and exhausted. Even with my chronic illness, these are the best and happiest years so far.
@@valeriagarcia4864 Why are you bothering people who, clearly, stated that they are happy in their comfort zone. Go somewhere where people are paid at a school or paid to tutor people who want to learn English.
@@cmcordoYT I'm happy for you that you are able to find peace in your life after so many years. Having medical issues that cannot be fixed sucks. I wish you don't have any serious complications with your health in the future. There is nothing wrong with finding a peaceful way to live even if it means not trying to work hard everyday. Life is very short and people should find a comfortable way to live if that's what they want.
@@ab_0625 Thank you for your kind words. Yes, I know what it is like to do too much that it becomes too challenging, even when you don't search for challenges. Sometimes life, itself, is a challenge, so any time I can take a break, I'm not going to feel bad about it.
I like to simplify my life here and there. Too many people think they have to sacrifice the majority of their time for "success".
They add things to their super busy lives and never give themselves time to think and relax. They run around like the world will stop if they don't have a million things they need to do each day.
It's healthy to take time to relax and ponder about anything or nothing, if they want.
"If you never push yourself to the limit, how can you know where your limit is?" very smart and true words
Thanks for showing up again!
When does he say that ??
@@unknown-10k 12:57
Yes, this channel is a goldmine. I believe this quote is from one of the stoic philosophers. Or then it's not a quote, but the message is the same. I find a lot of BTY content has a stoic flavour to it. Worth looking inte Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetos.
I know I understand l get it
If you don't get squeezed , you'll never know what's inside you
" trying something new makes you feel like an incompetent fool" I really felt that!.
golden line
"There is no improvement without challenge"
There’s a fine balance between leaving the comfort zone and not inviting harmful levels of stress to enter your life. I have experienced the latter work-wise by pushing myself, which was counter productive in the long run
I feel you're taking about the philosophy of Wu-Wei and the act of non-resistance is a better path than "trying" so hard. Do you have any insight on how to balance the content here in this video and Wu-Wei? I feel like the concepts in this video are paradoxical to Wu-Wei, but both philosophies seem true. Would love some insight if you have any...
theres your problem, you did it with work.
Its about balance and moderation. There is healthy stress, for example our muscles are put on stress when lifting and the grow from it.
Same with the brain. Obviously you can go too far but this video is speaking to people who never do it.
The improvements need to be within "arm's reach" or 1%. Sounds arbitrary but over stretching can be harmful. Most people dont push themselves consistently or intensely enough to understand where this limit is.
I've experienced burnout for quite a long time and it was indeed counter productive. But it doesn't mean that I shouldn't push myself again. To avoid stress, try to break tasks into small parts and do it little by little, set a boundary to avoid thinking of what you can't change, and only focus on what you can change.
Welcome back, we have missed you.
We really did
So true ! Thanks for being back !!
You're welkam
Yes we really did, my favorite youtuber i was a little worried glad he’s back
let's do this
Took me losing the comfort zone I built over 40 years to understand this. The real adventure started when I no longer had any comfort zones.
Thank you for this. I love confirmations!
“There’s no improvement without challenge”
I love that
"Because they don't confront their fear, their fear becomes even bigger" WHOA! Love your infographic teaching style
As we say in Germany: "Wer rastet, der rostet". We grow through the _right amount_ of challenge!
Whoever rests gets rested. Am I right?
@@PurooRoy ...close ;D
In Dutch; Rust roest😀.
@@PurooRoy whoever rests gets rusty ^^ would be the literal translation
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
I never thought that the comfort zone can also shrink but it makes sense and gives more motivation to leave it. Very useful video!
Let us hear you preach this garbage hypocrisy when you are sentenced to prison for life for the activities you do outside your comfort,
like millions of people throughout the world are, including the USA, for protesting and fighting against evil unjust corrupt laws and governments,
in spite of their fear of leaving their homes to protest and fight back.
I'm constantly learning new things, stretching myself. Sometimes it's frightening, but mainly it's a great deal of fun!
This is where the Joy is, for me, at least.
1:16 When you're doing the same things, the same way, over and over, the comfort zone itself begins to shrink. The things that you were comfortable with before, are now less comfortable.
2:52 However, when we push ourselves and do something that is a little more difficult or challenging for us, we leave the comfort zone and we enter the growth zone.
There's no improvement without challenge, remember that.
3:48 Of course the comfort zone isn't just one single zone for everything. We have multiple zones.
You might be pushing yourself in some of them, stagnating in others and even deteriorating
in some.
It's up to each of us to identify which zone needs more work. And it's completely fine to stop progressing in some areas if you're happy with where you are. There's no need to push yourself at everything you do.
4:19 But if you're not happy with where you are, there are a few ways to go from comfort to growth.
1. Do it more consistently and do it more often.
2. Do it more intensely and do a harder version of what you normally do.
3. Do it for a longer period of time.
6:42 With that being said, if something is difficult, it doesn't automatically mean it's good.
The area you want to be uncomfortable in, has to have some sort of a long-term benefit.
So these types of areas are where you should actually push yourself, the ones with short-term pain, but long-term gain.
And that is the second reason why I try to do something difficult every day. Even though it might feel uncomfortable in the moment, I know that my behavior will pay off in the future. And only by entering the growth zone and pushing myself, am I able to reap those positive long term benefits.
i remember when i found this channel while doing nofap, 2 years later i have become someone very different, i am able to communicate in 4 different languages now, my health and physique becomes better, and my social skill is way improved.
I don't know what to say anymore man, thank you so much for the things you've taught me🤜🤛
Welcome back, you don't give up, you face the challenges life thinks you worthy of.
I try to stay away from as many people as I can, as often as I can and as far away as I can.
Not a bad idea tbh
It’s not good for human beings to live like that
Amen
I try an avoid people as much as i can these days
And man i tell ya my mood has never been better an my life never been smoother
I'm so done with people lol
As now, an old man This is the way. However, u do need to generate new experiences and memories somewhat regularly.
No matter how much you avoid people, life will force you into situations where you must be able to deal with people especially unsavory people. It is best to practice dealing with these people so you don't continue to suffer unnecessarily.
I'm always alone that sometimes I cannot ask my parents for something because I'm getting shy
So never be alone to long
Thank you for returning! I really enjoy your videos and I'm sure you know how much of a difference they make in the lives of so many people.
After failing 3 times in a gym, because I was always in danger zone. I started walking. I love walking I can walk for 30 min daily & it's enjoyable. The key is to find the habits you really enjoy 😊
I don't like exercising in a gym. I prefer walking or running slowly.
@@user-fu4ek1mm2e hello I feel same 😊 walking is amazing
@@user-fu4ek1mm2e funny, for me it's the other way around. I've tried starting running a few times, which I thought would feel natural since I used to do cross country in high school, but every time I'd just feel miserable and give up for a long while afterward. But a couple months ago I started weightlifting at the gym and I've actually been able to make a habit of going biweekly, to the point where I actually look forward to it! And now I've been extending my sessions and trying to work in some more cardio. Point being, whatever it is, I completely agree that it's so important to find an enjoyable challenge.
@@egarcia1360 🍀soo glad to hear you found something you truly love for me it's walking & aerobics ❤️
Me too, I had hurt my back. I prefer walking and light home exercises.
Great video. I might add that sometimes you’re simply stuck in the comfort zone because you can’t figure out the best actions to take to improve. Just grinding it out doesn’t always lead to better results if you’re not spending your time on the right things and it’s often useful to ask for help from a mentor or coach to get the results you want.
Facts
i've found efficiency is the answer when grinding in the workplace. it's drove me to problem solve issues that my predecessors could not. in life though advice from more experienced/wiser people might be helpful.
I'm 2 months late, but I appreciate your comment!!
Absolutely. Some folks can be so close to their own problem, it can be hard to see what to do. Daily Journaling does help to create an elimination process, but wise and oft overlooked point.
This is one of my favorite channels. I'm glad that you're pursuing the life you want, and doubly so that resuming this channel is part of that life.
Carry on, Hoss!
Thank you so much 🙌❤️
Means a lot to me who literally degraded back from comfort zone cause I took too many leaps out of it and got burnt out to a point where i started questioning if i wanted to live through anymore!
This video helped to look through what went wrong and yes small but regular changes are the key.
Thank you so much 🙌
The comfort zone shrinking is the reason why I left Europe to work in Middle Asia for a few years. I was noticing that I was increasingly afraid of the wide world, with its wars and plagues and catastrophes. I started to hide in my comfortable middle European country and was about to dig a trench around my comfort zone. Then I applied for a job 12 hours of flight away, moved there, found an apartment, friends, a new way to see the world. It was the best decision I made in the last decade, and it gave me back the world and the freedom to not hide in my safe tiny nest.
Love this. Your video really helped me today, immensely while in a severe struggle at the start of a year of work/ opportunity to develop my own new art style, after years of prep... but getting paralyzed, often wasting time on yet one more day of research, etc, before pushing myself in hands on work. Today, I was ready to prolong the agony yet again, wanting to sit down in the middle of cooking part of my food for the whole week, while having a bite to eat. But hearing this talk, I realized I wanted the cooking done & over, so I can bike/ swim at the lake today on a 91 degree day for exercise, & then do art all night. I am so thrilled for at least one step today in pushing myself. The cooking is done & over with no unnecessary break that threatened sabotage.
I’m so glad to see you back!! Reflecting on my own journey and growth, it’s crazy how it’s been a year already! I hope I can continue improving through your videos :D
Happy to see you again and knowing that you're doing well!!! Welcome back 🎉🎉🎉
thank you for this informative video. i’ve been horrible mentally lately and have been trying to push myself too much which would lead me back to square one a week later. however, i realized everything you said is right and i’m going to change based on this video. thank you.
Really? Your life was out of your control until you watched a subjective CZcams video for thirteen minutes? Really? Get some real help.
Thanks brother for giving us hope from your videos, in this challenging life people usually give up because they think they are not capable of doing the things that are hard but there are always people like you, who always be the support for those who give up, so thank you for these videos and also may god bless you in all aspects of your life.
It's good to see you back. It does not matter if you upload videos daily or weekly or once a month. But I should say, whenever I see your video, there is a good smile on my face. Your videos are really helping us to do better regularly. Learning so many things regularly due to your videos. Your channel is one of those which actually uploads good content. I can't say how valuable those videos are for me. Thank you for creating such videos
Hello! I've been watching your videos for weeks since I stumbled upon the Dopamine Detox video. It's fascinating that you came back and uploaded a new one with a very timely message to me like you know what feel personally.
I've been constantly burnt out and even get sick and then stay stuck in an unending cycle. I just realized recently that I have been pushing myself consistently at the danger zone each time I recover from being stuck. Now I am stuck once again because I feel so burnt out after trying too hard right away even when I was never used to it. It's like aiming for an A+ right away when I have always received C's all my life. I keep skipping the steps and attempt a huge leap that only makes me fall. I am trying my best to get back on track again and experience real growth this time. Because comfort zone is just a "temporary refuge but not permanent residence."
Thank you for these videos! They have helped and inspired me a lot.
Also, I have been physically sick lately and I really find difficulty getting back on track because my goals were ruined and was left with so much backlogs. It would be great if you also make a video about recovering your mental state after a frustrating season like this because I struggle a lot whenever this happens.
This is one of the best CZcams videos I've ever watched. Taught me a lot. Thank you very much! Glad you are back!
So good!! Thank you for explaining this so wonderfully. Love the idea of only pushing yourself in certain areas and then coming back to a place of comfort in others ☺️
"... and you feel ready to improve again, you push past your comfort zone."
rly needed to hear that. never thought about laying back and letting my comfort zone catch up before i improve again. i always thought i had to hold the plateau on where my first burst got me. i always knew i couldnt advance endlessly, but instead of taking one step back and two forward, accepting that i neednt push myself, i always tried to only walk forward, even if i didnt feel ready to improve yet.
Started following your channel about 3 years back when I was still in college and when everything including my health and performance had nosedived . Then stumbled across your channel and it was really like attaining enlightenment , coz when still in school used to follow routines and habits hammered into me by my parents over the course of my life and it eventually became 2nd nature to me followed it subconsciously till 1st year of my college . Then when habits and routines changed everything went haywire .
Thanks to your channel I quickly got back onto the right track and thanks for the numerous words of wisdom . Glad to see you back...!!!
I've always had a hard time understanding the comfort zone. This video was the best explanation I ever heard. I'll be listening to this over again until I can fully understand it and apply it to my life. Thanks for the great information.
These essential things are not taught in school .thank you for this video
Welcome back. We have missed you.
I used to listen to your videos on my walks back in quarantine 2020 to help keep my spirits up.
Now, years later, I'm about to be a senior in high school and am still inspired by your videos. I hope you're doing well!
Side note: I realized that I've been using the three methods mentioned at 6:00 too quickly. It affects my social skills even with close friends and my study habits for seminary and secular education. I had no idea what I might be doing wrong, so thank you for the insight!
There is a sudden sense of happiness after seeing your video. Hope you're doing well 🙂
It's a false sense of reward. You think you are doing something good for yourself because you perceive that you are doing bad. You must suffer with many insecurities. Forget this junk. MEDITATE.
Ugh, fuck it!
@@shalinisingh8447, I just watched some of these videos the first time and was interested what was gonna be said. It all sucked, everything I wouldn’t want to hear. Let’s get one thing clear, I’m not coming back here to watch any of these videos.
This is the most realistic motivational channel I knew that really applies in everyday life
I just discovered your channel and I can only say this is a great idea!
Great, educational content, simple explanations and great videos for those who want to be better than yesterday!
Keep going!👏🏻
I'm glad this channel is active again. It's good to have a growth community such as Better Than Yesterday to inspire people worldwide to be better versions of themselves.
To be more industrious versions of themselves*
This does not necessarily mean, "better".
Try meditating, the exact opposite of industriousness, and you will see that this video is playing on your insecurities.
@@evanfiend Some people, including me, need to be more industrious because there are real life problems that need to be solved. A plagued mind will never find rest in meditation, only when the physical ability to deal with problems, improves, then the mind can rest and be at peace. I think that you feel like this video played on your insecurities and maybe challenged your world view a bit. Meditation can do wonders, but it won't solve all your problems on it's own.
@@JohanDippenaar
A plagued mind will never find rest without meditation.
Your CZcams channel is one of my favorites. Thanks for consistently creating high-quality content that's both entertaining and informative ❤️🙏
I really appreciated this video! !! I reallly feel more fulfilment now: during the pandemic period I got uneployment and I felt desperate. I started study and setted small and long goals : learning play flaut, play croche, and knitting, and now I am studying French 20 min per day . I started work as English teacher, I'm Brazilian, and by pushing my self help to be more humble and comprehensive and help me struggle bad feelings!
This even applies to things like depression. Its like a big comfy chair that has my body's imprint on it perfectly, its dangerously comfortable and makes it very hard to getting out of it. Thankfully I got up from that chair a few years ago, but I am always staying alert and careful to not let myself sit down in that chair again, like if something bad happens to me, I MUST keep my head up and stay positive.
Thank you. I really needed to hear this. Been feeling overwhelmed and depressed lately, and haven’t even been keeping up with my journal and daily tasks. That will be the hard thing that I do each night to make sure I stay on track. Your videos are very helpful
yeah it is really hard. my next video is about it
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for making this informative podcast. I'm an older man, and I'm semi-retired. I thought I'd really enjoy my "Golden Years," but I found myself in an increasingly growing rut. I have built such a comfortable world around myself that every day seems exactly like the all the rest. But this video has given me the desire to go a little bit more outside of my "Comfort Zone," especially socially. From now on, I'm going to try to do something that makes me a little nervous or unsure, for only through facing down your demons can you truly find freedom. Not only was your advice well-supported, but incredibly positive.
Btw, I found a lot of responders on your channel who totally missed the entire point of what you're trying to say. You're not telling people to be an "overachiever," or anything of the kind!! Another genius equated your entire video with "hurting yourself by working out too hard." These individuals not only misinterpreted the entire purpose of your suggestions, but evidently have difficulty understanding the English language. Again, I truly appreciate all of the hard work you've obviously put into this presentation.
Your words are just what I need. I don’t think I will ever be satisfied without this information. Thanks.
So glad to see your videos again. Genuinely, your videos are eye opening and taught me so many ideas and lessons that I learned from and taken with me through the past few years. You are definitely making me and all your viewers, better than yesterday.
He’s back!!!!!
You’ve helped me so much with all your videos through some of the hardest times I’ve been thru, so thanks so much for all the help
This video runs very deep. Though the examples are very simple to understand, it’s actually kind of mind blowing how this can apply to almost anything you can think of.
I think this video really helps give a method of gauging where you’re at in any area in your life that needs more or less of your energy, and help strike a balance.
I randomly found out this channel yesterday, watched some videos and I am impressed. Amazing explanation and topics. So thankful for this channel! Great job!! 👏
I absolutely love your channel! Your videos are so inspiring, and motivational, you have unknowingly helped me ‘out of my shell’ countless times 😌
Thank you for everything that you do!!
Really happy to see you back bro, I was subscribed to your channel after you stopped creating videos.
I was just there in a hope that you will soon upload a new video.
Thanks you have changed a lot in my life. I'm working on one of the biggest goals of my life, it will be completed in 2-3 months. I will definitely let you know once it's done.
What was your goal? did you complete it?
It's great to have you back and creating content! Glad you were out living life!
Thank you for this great video. Another good piece of advice for breaking out of the comfort zone is the letting go of limiting beliefs
You are doing great, man!!! Huge thanks for keeping the clear and positive vector of thought!
You are an incredible content creator. Don't give up! continue putting out this great content (unless its no longer what you love doing of course). At first, I'm not gonna lie, your accent and the drawing style videos made it hard to follow. But i quickly looked past that and saw the incredible content you always put out. You have made me a better person. I hope this encourages you and you are motivated to continue making this fantastic content. You are my favorite channel!
So true. I stayed in my comfort zone when it came to typing. I just typed however I'd like it without paying attention to the correct hand position. One day, I realized that I needed to increase my typing speed as it is very important to improve the efficiency in my work. So I found a typing practice software online and followed it. It started with only a small set of characters and gradually grew to a larger set as you became adept. I can feel that my typing speed is improved after every practice, which provides me with sense of fulfillment and incentives to practice on the next day.
This dude sums up something so simple yet so complex in about 14 minutes while some courses couldn't in weeks.
Respect.
this is the greatest comeback of youtube. thank you BTY to make me a little better than myself from a year back! :)

Who is both reading and whatch CZcams not at the same time
Easy choices = Hard life
Hard choices = Easy life
Makes no sense.
Kind of does
You should make a tattoo of that.
This only makes sense if you care or are compelled to make the hard choices. Most people compartmentalize this idea of stepping out of the comfort zone. You can't step out for just a few minutes a day or do a task that is relatively difficult for you. That is nonsense. You will and should feel like an imposter. When you dive into discomfort, it must be a CRITICAL or FUNDAMENTAL part of your life that you are impacting. It has to be BIG. Or it really won't change you.
@@randolphpinkle4482 when you say comfort zone in what way do you mean? Because I've always did things outside of my comfort zone but it didn't necessarily work out the way I though it would. I feel this applies only to certain situations like moving overseas without knowing anyone

Thank you for a very clear, understandable explanation of how to improve oneself and one's life.
You have simplified a very important issue. I feel motivated and ready to try out your advice.
Love, love this! I’m gonna have to rewatch this video over & over to make sure it sinks in my subconscious and sticks.
Welcome back Man, missed you a ton❤️ don't leave us again please💝
I really liked the fact that you covered the topic completely and not half based.
I remember the times when I used to take on too much at the beginning and failing. For example, during the pandemic, I wanted to study a lot and get better a lot as well. Hence, I decided that I'll keep studying until I get there. Like, I didn't sleep at all, I didn't rest at all and kept studying all the time. This would go on for like 6 days and on the 7th day, I would have accidentally fallen asleep. Then after such a failure, I would spend 1-2 days simply crying and cursing myself for falling asleep. But, after all that crying, I would make another plan and try to complete it the same way again. This would keep going on for a long time.
Plus, I also had that belief that we should keep giving ourselves pain, because that what usually occurs when we get out of our comfort zone. To do this, I would usually sit with thin clothes in winter, read extremely painful news of COVID-19 patients and about that of the injured ones of the war. I just believed that it's important to make mysgo through pain. Because somehow not experiencing those things would mean like I'm running away from reality or something.
I don't do those things anymore. But, I still have that belief that if we are going to do something, then we better give it our all in doing it, which includes every single area of life, every day.
I have a hard time just resting or doing something without putting my everything in it. Doing so, most of the time I end up with a burnout simply because of carrying day to day tasks. Then, I feel so exhausted and unfocused to do what I actually like and have fun doing later on.
I didn't realise this pattern until I watched your video. Thank you for your efforts.
Fine line between this and putting too much stress on oneself. Nowadays a typical job is stressful, along with modern life in general. Don’t read too much into this and think you have to pull the rug out from under yourself.
I love your videos. Thank you!
You can tell you a few advantages of breaking an ankle from my experience: I'm a dancing teacher and would never have thought that I might be able to teach sitting. Now I have a new skill that will help me when I'm really old and still want to teach. I trained my ankles and they are now stronger than they where before. I also have a better balance. And I could relax from the great stress I was having and learned to accept that things also work without me. So, everything has a good side.
Wow, this video actually came to me the exact time i feel burnout. I realize now that i dont have to strive for everything to be better, i just need to choose which matter the most.
I'm glad your back. Hope you continue to inspire us with your content :)
Wooooooowwww I have never commented on anything in my life but this…. Brother, friend, I see the light in you shine in me brighter now because of your precise, well constructed, and powerful message. I am a creater that never truly believed in them selves because I’ve lived my whole life in the danger zone constantly pushing it past the limit where not even a great nights rest the perfect food the right amount of water and the perfect routine structured even down to the minute at times I never knew how much I was hurting myself because I never knew how to take a break I judged myself so harshly because I had impossible expectations so I never build it myself I was constantly riding in the danger zone and I just want to thank you for making this continent much love brother.
Best clip I've seen this year. Thanks a lot. 🙏
Glad to see you back! A rolling stone gathers no moss!
Thanks for sharing this video! 😁
In my case, the most challenging thing is not to stay too long when I go back to my comfort zone.
(For example, when I try to improve my nutrition)
Sometimes I feel like I'm trapped there because I can't find the correct balance.
However, that doesn't stop me from trying again... it's like playing in a lab, doing experiments with myself. 😁
Welcome back and THANKS again for all your work. 😊
Let's all have a great day! 🤗
Welcome back I love your videos. Thanks for posting!
Great video. I already knew the things you talked through, but your form of knowledge delivery is so good! It is so easy to understand and to absorb. Thanks for your effort at educating.
I shattered my anckle in 2019 and I'm not going to pretend that the recovery wasn't brutal. After 12 months I was still in a lot of pain and I fell into a bad depression but after 18 months I made a decision that I had to improve my body, mind and soul. I started with 30 min in the a.m and now after 16 months, I walk 7 days a week, twice a day for a min of 45 min each time. This was a long and hard process but I couldn't be happier. I'm down 30 lbs and hope to drop a little more. Just started yoga recently to improve so I can't wait to see what that will do for my body. What has helped me stay on track in simply thinking that if I don't do it now, when will I? When it's already too late? I'm "disabled" but I refuse to surrender.
🙏
Yesss!!! The 30 day social media detox was great! So glad you are back!
Probably the most important video you will watch in your life! This is what parents should be teaching their kids!
I'm soo happy to see you back !!! Missed this channel alot !
That "better than yesterday" at the end gives me goosebumps! It was perfect.
i am a music producer, and i tend to make the same type of beats every time, and im trying to vary in order for me to explore other styles and genres to improve my music career.
thank you, this was very helpful to get me to go out of my comfort zone
this motivation video is the most 'make sense" than other motivational videos about leaving your comfort zone to become next level thing.
What a great video. Such an eye-opening one. Videos like this made me wake up and stay on the path.
It's so good to see you, again. I missed watching your videos. It's valuable and must watch videos.
OMG!! I can relate so much to this video! I'm always stuck in my comfort zone😭
Thank you for this, it was just the reminder I needed.
You hit my problem spot! Thank you very much for sharing this helpful info.
I love your videos so much. They make so much sense and I feel like I can understand them. Thank you.
Thank you much for this video.
I have lost alot of things because i couldn't.get.out of my comfort zone and keeps regretting it.
But i have been improving myself alot and decided to get out of my comfort zone more.
Just thinking about getting out of my comfort zone gives me the chill of adventure and excitement. Can you guys please like it so that I get the notification to come back 😘
Man you are doing a great service to the humanity. I beg you to become consistent at what you are doing and keep helping us. Please do not give up like before! We are here for you!
What is hard is worth the struggle and the lessons learned through a hard process will benefit you in the future as well. If manhood and mastery is something that interests you, I invite you to use the resources on the Mastery Order Channel and challenge yourself with some ideas about masculinity to become the kind of man you would look up to, a man that never says "no" to tough challenges.
We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well.
Looking forward to your points of view.
All the best to you!
@@MasteryOrder Just subscribed to your channel brother! Hope to learn something new and useful from it. Thank you very much.
@@abbaabba2792 Anytime. Welcome on board. Challenge yourself with some ideas and use them to your benefit. All the best to you!
This idea is something I don't see talked about enough on CZcams. Very good advice
I always listen to these kind of videos a few tines a month to push me out of my comfort zone. I'm always anxious of the unknown.
On the surface this advice is good, but as someone who’s been doing the hard thing for 8 years, (since I graduated High school basically) it has completely broken my spirit and energy. Despite trying my hardest I have failed, I am left with despair, zero hope, zero ambition, I just feel bulldozed
Struggling for 8 years has left me feeling weaker than I ever have, burnt out, barely keeping above water
My advice to anyone would be slow and steady, working and fighting for too long isn’t a sound strategy for longevity
Hey, i understand :’) you have been doing so great these past years, but right now what you need is a proper rest to heal both your mind and soul. I’m on the same path as you and you are not alone ♥️ Let’s give time to ourselves to live, heal and relax until when we are charged we can continue to strive in life for our goals in a more steady way 💪🏻
Maybe the thing you’re working on isn’t the right thing. Some things are impossible.
They say when you follow a statement with 'but,' it indicates you are contradicting the 1st part of your statement. So I would just point out that the video included advice on not pushing yourself in a way that creates burnout or injury or other harm. Sorry for your struggles. The only time you fail is when you permanently quit & also don't try to learn from what went wrong. I also seek God with me. Blessings.
Hard work is definitely overrated
I agree
