Life is not a bed of roses, and everything in life doesn't go according to plan. There exists uncertainty, and no matter how much we try, we cannot eliminate it. We want many things, but achieving those is not so easy, and we need to struggle for it. If we keep ourselves in our comfort zone, it is very hard to achieve something in life because unless we push our boundaries continuously, we may not be able to understand our potential or ability. So to do something great or achieve something in life, we need to leave our comfort zone behind.
The life of a soldier can be the best example of it. Many other professions pay high salaries, but there are many people who choose to be soldiers. They could choose a different profession and earn a handsome salary, but they didn't choose to do so. They prioritize the safety of the people, and someone needs to take the responsibility to protect the country, and that's why they choose to leave their comfort zone. It's not a little thing, and not everyone can do that, as not everyone is so brave. I respect this person who is protecting our country and keeping us safe for their sacrifices and for leaving their comfort.
It's true that in my life I didn't do something magnificent, but everyone has their own comfort zone. "Comfort zone" means doing something or staying in a place or taking action based on our will, and we don't need to make too much effort for it. Such a life can be considered an illusion because in life, there is no place for those people who can't leave their comfort zone. After all, if we keep ourselves within our comfort zone, we cannot improve. Yes, we don't try, and we will be satisfied with the position. In my life, I think there are only very few things to mention for why I choose to leave my comfort zone. And obviously, most of them are related to my academic career.
I already said many times that my memorizing power was not so good in earlier days, and I really suffered a lot because of it, especially at exam time and in many other cases in life. From this perspective, I was a below-average person, as I lacked good memorizing power. But I never took it as my weakness. I knew that it was very hard for me to memorize something. So I stopped trying to memorize, and I kept reading again and again. I can remember that because of the weakness, I even stopped playing outside and used the time for studying. It sounds easy, but it was not so easy to do, as I used to play every noon. For the betterment of my studies, I sacrifice all the extra activities from my daily life. I made all the sacrifices just to make my academic career better.
When I had grown up a little more, it made me almost like a robot. Suppressing emotions became easy for me. In fact, most of the time, I could go against my emotions also. I don't know if it's a good habit or a bad habit, but I am capable of doing so. Again, when I felt lazy or wanted to take a rest, I always went against it, and I forced myself to study. In this case, I also left my comfort zone for my good career, and because of that, I could end my student life as a topper. If I didn't choose to leave my comfort zone behind, I might be a below-average student, and everything I have achieved till now might not be possible.
