A Cage Fight?

What comes to mind when you think about a Cage Fight? 

Expertise? Fitness? Bloody, non-sensical pummeling? 

What else? 

And why would I be writing about that for you as a theme of growth for you and your business? Because most people put themselves and their organizations in a cage. Then they wait. And sure enough, problems come along. And how are those problems addressed? We “attack” the problem.

What a waste.

We put energy into attacking a problem in a cage we built for ourselves. 

“No, Dr P. No. I didn’t put myself in a cage!” People don’t like to think of themselves as living a “caged” life. Unfortunately, most of us don’t like to look past what feels “safe.” 

If we live a life of so-called safety, we’ll never grow. We’ll follow the rules that have been given to us by somebody else. We’re then living someone else’s life. And, dear reader, what would you call it if you’re not living your own life, but you’re living someone else’s version of how you should be? That, my friend, is a caged life.

And then problems come up and in the cage, you can’t see the abundance of resources that are ALLLLLL around you. Instead, you look only at the cage and wonder how life is so unfair.

IF THIS ISN’T YOU, congratulations. It’s likely someone you know. If it IS you, it’s time to break out of the cage that YOU built for yourself (accountability is a thing, here). The only way to grow is to be deliberate and accountable.

Question: How did you get here?

Answer: I chose this.

No yeah, but. Just that: I chose this. 

You may not have chosen all of life’s circumstances or what was done to you along the way. You do get to choose differently today. 

You get to choose to risk doing something different today than you did yesterday. You get to try something new or let go of something that no longer serves you. 

That’s how you break free from the cage. That’s how you grow yourself and your business. You choose to Risk Well, a saying of mine that I addressed in another blog or two. 

The self-imposed cage of safety doesn’t serve you anymore. Maybe it used to. You’re a different, more capable human today. Break free. Step into something new. Let go of something that’s been holding you back.

Your next level awaits!

Keep making your magic!
