You're Stuck In Your Comfort Zone

a man stuck in his comfort zone tries to get you out of yours

This month, I tried:

That transition in the beginning was a spiritual experience

[haleybarton]

Crazy how people start realizing the same things at the same time. I applied for a job that I never thought I would be good enough to have. I almost didn’t go to the interview because I was so anxious. And I got it. It just goes to show that the things that make us uncomfortable can sometimes be the best thing for us

A video essay personally calling out people stuck in comfort zones? You already know it's an instant CLASSIC

[doubletapp]

This video was pretty validating for me. I'm in the same stage in life, same home town, same daily loop. It seems like everyone online is progressing through life making big changes. Reassuring to see I'm not the only one making smaller steps.

[alexlennen]

genuinely inspired by the production value in this one. You somehow found a perfect balance between your familiar style and something brand new. Definitely left your comfort zone with this one, it's already a classic

"the pandemic let me feed into my introvert self so much that i forgot i actually enjoy talking to people" and "it's jumping into the pool I know is going to be cold even though I know I'm going to enjoy it in a little bit" I feel this so much. I hate cruising on autopilot but it's scary not to

[Chirp]

It’s crazy how we’re all going through the same things in different ways. I was just giving myself a pep talk, telling myself that I need to stop using complacency as a shield against my fears, and then you posted this.

This is this dropped in perfect timing... I'm at a place rn where I'm realizing that I run to the bad comfort almost immediately after a small setback or fear kicks in... time to step out man. Thanks Nathan.. this is EXACTLY what I needed to hear..

[evanjoao]

God this hit me at the perfect time. Just finished my first year of college and felt so intimidated to step out of my comfort zone, that the year just whizzed by without me making any new friends or having any real kind of "fun". Drove to school made a b line to class, drove home. rinse and repeat. For the whole damn year. I plan to try to try step out of that comfort zone next year though :)

"I'm not a self help guru, I'm trying to help *my* self. If I'm gonna keep trying my best, I want you all to try your best" LOVE that attitude 🙏💙

[asylumbooks]

I swear Nathan has some kind crazy mind reading ability with his audience, being able to predict what they need to hear and when they need to hear it!

[DavidAlvareeezy]

bro that intro transition?! INSTANT CLASSIC

[vee]

I went to see paramore for the first time alone and it was my very first concert. I have terrible anxiety but I went anyway and eventhough it was a little awkward because someone next to me had an attitude about me coming by myself, it was an experience I really needed. Looking to go to more concerts by myself now, hopefully :). Thanks for another classic, Nathan!

[horazus]

I really felt this one Nathan. After a breakup I came to live with my mum in the country and my day to day is so same-y I’m getting scared about doing anything different. I feel like everyone else is living and I’m just existing. As always, so glad for the relatable content, you make us all feel less alone!

[malikamaybe]

Being afraid to fail and afraid to fail publicly has me in a chokehold lmao. I’ll get myself free finger-by-finger tbh. The timing of this video…like I just got rid of a couple of comforts that made me procrastinate way, way too much from pursuits this morninG. I used to step out of my comfort zone way more years ago and I’ve told myself to start making baby steps to start that up again. Also, the editing on the video, the entire production? Top tier. Bless.

[stephaniefrost]

6:16 "do your worst" is crazy 😂 and the fact that y'all almost got your shit rocked by a moving vehicle immediately after he said that is funny as hell, glad you're okay tho!

[acecola]

I'm loving this newer more mature direction the channel is going in. From the memory episode to this one it's like we're seeing this new part of Zed awaken and it's been helping a lot of us as well. Thank you and keep on making quality content!

[Saxinful]

I can definitely relate to the bad comfort zone. It makes you feel terrible, but you're doing stuff you "like", gets depressing real fast if you're not careful!

[AdrianM]

You hit the nail on the head bro.. it’s like you’re my subconscious speaking to me. I’ve got too many bad comforts.. but I feel great every time I push myself to get out of those comfort zones

[notthatserious]

Needed to here this. I’m 18 and I feel like I’m already behind in life lol, been trapped by my comfort zone. But ever since January been introducing uncomfortable things slowly. Going to gym, eating healthy, switching my majors. Now this summer I plan to take acting classes and get some set work in because my dream goal is to become an actor! Small consistent changes to your norm is what’ll take you farther than the big mid-life crisis shifts.
