Wake Up and Dream!

Episode 62: Are you stuck in a fish tank?


Listen Later

In this episode, we had fun with an analogy comparing our life to a baby shark living inside a fish tank.  Sara had read a LinkedIn article, shark-growth-theory-raman-dua and it said this, “Did you ever think what will happen if we grow a shark in a fish tank, will it still grow the same size. Nope, it’s not like that , a shark will grow not more than 8 inches if you put it into a tank and the same shark will grow 8 feet in the ocean . The shark will never outgrow its environment and the same is true about you. Our growth and progress of life depends upon our environment and surroundings.”

 

Listen in to hear our lively discussion around this concept.  Our environment certainly plays a role in our growth, and realizing that in a lot of ways, we have some control over that, can be empowering.  We shared how yes to be stuck in a “fish tank” can definitely thwart your growth, your vision of who you truly want to become and the impact you can have on this world.  Yet, even if we feel like we are in the big “ocean” swimming with the bigger fish, do we find ourselves “playing it safe,” hanging out in our comfort zone, afraid of swimming into unknown waters?  We had a lot of fun using this analogy and we would love to hear your thoughts on this.

  1. Do you feel like you are “stuck” in a fish tank with no choice?

  2. What is stopping you from “swimming” out into the unknown waters and exploring new growth opportunities?

  3. Do you tend to “play it safe” or are you more attracted to growing yourself and stepping into “the unknown waters” of possibilities?
