I push myself really hard out my comfort zone, taking yoga group classes, learning Mandarin, writing articles for my company, giving reviews in a book club, running an employee association and asking to my client to learn different things that are not part of my current tasks. I think the key is not being afraid of making mistakes, accept the naiveness and open yourself to the possibility of trying something, you don't need to become an expert. Just trying once makes you go a little outside of the comfort zone.
I write songs since I was 15 and I always posted them of RUclips but I never shared with anyone in my social media. This month, for the first time I released a song and Spotify and shared on my Instagram. It was terrified!!!!!!!!! But I finally did it and it feels so good
Oh I had that thing with the laptop in the coffee too. Or even going to the gym and working out. I even couldn't go to or through a busy place like the main station here in Zurich, but it was necessary for me to get to work or meet up with people at specific stores. Then I found out, that almost everyone is way too busy with themselves and struggles with the same feelings most of the time just by observing them and looking into body language. What also helped was going to places with friends a couple of times and trying it solo later again. It usually went much better... Good and helpful video as always, thank you!
I’ve been taking small steps to get out of my comfort zone and it’s made a huge difference for me! It was counterproductive when I tried changing too much at once
Driving to foreign places and taking calls from clients were two things I always managed to delegate to other people and avoid doing. This year I made myself to drive five hours to a camping destination and after my supervisor left I had to start taking the calls, and although it made me anxious and felt uncomfortable for a bit, sitting with the anxiety and slowly getting over it has made me feel a lot better about these things
I‘ve been trying to find little ways out of my comfort zone lately. I feel like the whole pandemic-covid thing fuelled so many anxieties that I now have to slowly get rid of again! Very helpful video, thank you x
Awesome video! It triggered an epiphany and some thoughts in me today. I’m a trauma survivor and I realized i have been living in my comfort zone soo much. But, would have severe reactions when I went out. It blew my mind how simple it is. I took note of it, going to send the video to my therapist so I don’t forget to talk about it. Thank you so much! I know I will use a lot of the knowledge you’ve shared! Also, the delivery was very gentle and caring. Loved it!!! 😊💕🌻
I have a therapist but never thought I could share RUclips videos with them. How do you share things with your therapist without fear of being annoying? (my fear) like I hardly ever email them.. Am I doing something wrong? I'm genuinely interested
@@planettes I make a list of things I want to talk about and have one or two thing that I connected with (video, quotes, or book). Then during my therapy session I mention it and then ask my therapist if she’s interested in the video? And usually she is and then I send it to them via email. Hope that helps!
I love your videos SO much! I always turn to you when I feel like I'm in a slump or if I just need a way to adjust my perspective! The advide you give and the tools you provide are super helpful (even if I have to re-watch your videos over and over again if I've fallen off the bandwagon lol) But you help me to move forward and to focus on the truly important things. You are so so appreciated!
Hi - pushing out of your comfort zone (gently) is so important to create personal growth...so thank you for putting this video out to the masses! Social anxiety can be very difficult and you have obviously found ways and strategies that help you move forward and make changes - this takes courage!
Therapy in a nutshell ❤️ It helped me very much. Nice video! I like also to try new things, it makes me feel more alive. Less like I’m just hanging in there.
This is so true. Just this week I was thinking about how scared I am to try different group fitness classes at my gym because what if I'm bad at them. Wasting my membership and my life lol
This video is making a real difference in my life! I think of the comfort zone visual so regularly. I’m choosing to do hard things closer to the comfort zone and slowly building habits and hobbies I thought I’d never have the confidence to do. Thanks MuchelleB 💕✨
just love your videos, thank you for this! My students are so worried about making mistakes and being nervous, I think these tips will be very helpful for them (and me!).
I would love for you to do a video of the switch to positive. I know I could go back to your video and say the Opposite but I d love to have you do that video! Thx!
Thank you Michelle! ❤️ So much in this video resonates with me. This year I've made an effort to step out of my comfort zone on a regular basis and I can already feel tangible positive effects on my life and well-being.
Who doesn't love the random panic attacks that make them feel like they are dying lol. I have been trying to get out of my comfort zone or at least think about doing so. I just really need to set a small goal and force myself to do it repeatedly to get used to it and keep going from that I think.
I love your videos and feel like I would get along so well with other members of the community your content caters to. Have you considered making a slack or discord space for your audience to connect with you and each-other?

I love that! Yeah, I'm definitely the same.
@@muchelleb I’m glad to hear that! Little by little a lot of progress can be made :)
ellen hendriksen's book is life changing!! first time i felt so seen in my social anxiety.

When you started yawning, I started yawning too! It's contagious!

decided to expand my comfort zone by posting my first RUclips video! yikes! You're so right, it's so necessary for growth, thanks for all the tips!

I've had anxiety my whole life and have never considered coping tools as a way to work through those emotions, THANK YOU!
