When did you last feel completely out of your comfort zone?

I struggled with social anxiety growing up and in high school one of the girls in my class suggested I join the school theater production. I decided to give it a shot even though I was so scared because people would be watching me. The school theater director was actually incredibly good. I started off with just ensemble roles. I found that the bright stage lights made it nearly impossible to see faces in the crowd which made performing more comfortable for me. The next year I was given a background non speaking role. So I was onstage with the main cast but I didn’t have any lines and that was good. My last year before I graduated I was given a speaking role. Not a main character but a supporting character with a few lines. That’s when I really felt accomplished and I’m still very proud of myself for stepping out of comfort zone. I always wanted to act as a kid but my social anxiety made that very hard to achieve until then.

In Thailand when a group of people rushed to us after we got off the bus… very aggressively trying to get out businesses to take their taktak.. or tuk tuk

I had to scream and yell at them… they ran off….
it’s not me but when I had to protect my family, I guess that part of me came out. It was very uncomfortable.
my brother said don’t go to Thailand it’s dangerous lol…

I never really left my comfort zone because why take risks if you are going to pay with your health or possibly even your life for it?

Checking each of the topics in the picture

* stay safe vs. take risks - jumping out of an aircraft could lead you to crash on the ground if the parachute does not open. Why even take that risk?

* Avoid risk - I learn just as much being in my comfort zone. I just learn different things by not taking any unneeded risks

* No growth - By learning safe things that don't put your health and life at risk, you can grow just as much, just differently

* Regret later - You can live fully while still remaining safe and not doing silly things that you definitely will regret later when you are in a wheel chair because you were adventurous and put your life at risk.

I was gonna say when I started my new job a month ago and it's hard not being able to just walk in and do your thing cos every task is uncertain in the first week. But damn it, the others answers about in Thailand and motorbike accidents? Really puts word "comfort zone" into perspective!!

The moment I had a motorbike accident as passenger. Exactly those two seconds I flow with 100-150kmh in the air

When I started a new work placement, but then I settled in and enjoyed every minute of it.
