A speaker uses Amit Ray's quote about birds' wings to argue that humans are built to face challenges and move beyond comfort zones. Our bodies and minds are designed for risk-taking and figuring things out when we confront demanding situations.
Amit Ray said, a bird is safe in its nest, but that is not what its wings are made for. And by that he means we are all built to go beyond the nest, to take chances, take risks, go do something that might seem a little daring, a little dangerous, but our systems, our bodies are built for it, and our minds will figure out a way to actually fly and do the things that we need to do. So, it could be another way of saying go beyond your comfort zone, but I don't really enjoy that saying. I think it's more about knowing that we're actually constructed and built for the challenges ahead, and we do have the capabilities to go fly, to go beyond the nest, and prosper.
