“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone!”
Humans naturally feel very vulnerable with what they are not familiar with, which is why we spend much of our time staying in an invisible cocoon called the "comfort zone". We also spend a great deal of our time thinking about getting out of this safe space for the self. But should you always get out of your comfort zone at all costs, or will haste make waste?
In this TEDx talk, Ms Bao Nguyen recounts her own journey during her time as an undergraduate at Can Tho University, explores what she calls her "love-hate relationship" with the comfort zone, and offers some advice on when we should take that leap into the "fear zone".
