Life is waiting for you each day, and you have to prepare for each challenge along the way toward success. It's not simple, but it can be done. Welcome to my common sense motivation episodes. I'm Chris FantasticPow. You can only see the level that you're at. Today I want to challenge your perspective because the truth is you can only see the level that you're at. See, it's hard to grow when you're standing still inside your own point of view. Most people never step out of the mental walls they've built around who they think they are. They say things like I can't do that, I'm not built for that, or that's not for me. But here's what's wild. There are people watching you right now who see your potential clearly. They see the version of you that you've blinded yourself to. It's like being a player in the middle of a game. You're sweating, moving fast, focused on the moment, and you can't see the full filled. But the people in the stands, they see it all. They see where the opportunities are, the open space, the next move. That's how perspective works. You can only see what your current level allows you to, and to grow, you've got to be willing to climb higher. Growth requires humility, the kind that says maybe there's more that I can't see yet. It takes courage to admit you've been viewing life from the ground floor when there's a rooftop view waiting. Surround yourself with people who see more in you than you see in yourself. And instead of defending your limits, borrow their vision until you develop your own. If you stay in your head, you'll stay at your level. If you expand your mind, you elevate your life. If you change your view, you change your direction. Today stop saying I can't and start asking, what am I not seeing? Because your next level isn't out of reach, it's just out of view. And that means seek out people who see more in you than you see in yourself. Don't get offended when someone challenges your small view. Thank them for trying to expand it. Be willing to admit you don't know everything, because the minute you think you've arrived, you stop seeing new possibilities. Step outside of your comfort zone often. Every new experience adds a new lens to your perspective. And here's the truth. Sometimes it's not the world holding you back, it's your view of it. Your mind can be a box or it can be a bridge. The choice is yours. You have to remember every level of life comes with a new way of seeing. The person you were five years ago couldn't see the opportunities you have now, and the person you'll become five years from today will look back and say, Wow, I was thinking too small. So ask yourself, am I living based on what I can see or what I'm willing to believe? If you stay stuck in what you see, you stay stuck where you are. But if you choose to expand your view, to learn, to grow, to stretch, you'll start seeing opportunities that were invisible before. That's why I always tell people when life feels confusing, frustrating, or unclear, don't just change your situation, change your elevation. Because clarity doesn't always come from doing more, sometimes it comes from seeing better. And remember, you can't solve a problem from the same level of thinking that created it. You can't lead others higher if you refuse to climb yourself. You can't build a new future with an old perspective. So today open your eyes to what's possible. Step out of your head, challenge your limits, borrow the vision of those who believe in you until you can believe it for yourself. Because your next level isn't out of reach, it's just out of view. Make it happen. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell. Thank you for listening. For books, ebooks, or audiobooks, visit ChrisFantasticPowell.com or find them on Amazon.
