In a post shared on the microblogging site X (formerly Twitter), Alagh shared a much-needed and ‘quickest way to learn’. While sharing the advice, she even listed four occasions from her life when she willingly put herself in uncomfortable situations.
Ghazal Alagh, through her recent post, advised people to take the routes out of their comfort zone. The entrepreneur emphasised, “One thing that I will give credit to, that has shaped my life, is to put myself in uncomfortable situations”.
As Alagh went on to advocate for confronting one’s fears head-on, she cited instances from her life when she embraced discomfort. She mentioned, “Dropping non-medical to pick up the computer, taking up corporate training with 0 experience or training, going to New York alone when I haven’t been out of the city by myself ever or, starting up.”

The post shared by the beauty products brand’s owner prompted a flurry of reactions on social media. A user took to Alagh’s comment section seeking some advice as he asked, “The fear of losing is not allowing one to get out of their comfort zone. Can you please guide me.” Another user also expressed himself and commented, “At times, trying new things, especially while building a business, can come at the cost of focus. How do you balance the lure of trying something new with focusing on building the same thing day in and out? The opportunity cost doesn’t seem obvious to start with.”
Not long ago, the entrepreneur even shared her unique approach of following, “No digital distraction rule” every Sunday. Instead, she spends time with family and reading. She even highlighted the benefits of the practice adding that it helps us connect with ourselves better. Previously, Alagh also discussed the effectiveness of the “100-hour rule” in rapidly acquiring new skills explaining how this rule can help develop a skill out of their comfort zone.
