We explore the Upper Limit Problem—an invisible ceiling that holds recruiters back from sustained success and causes self-sabotage just when things start going well. This framework helps identify and break through the subconscious barriers preventing you from reaching your full potential in recruitment.

• Four hidden barriers keeping recruiters from success: feeling fundamentally flawed, fear of abandonment, believing success is a burden, and fear of outshining others
• Most recruiters get stuck in the "Zone of Excellence"—skilled but not truly fulfilled
• Your "Zone of Genius" is where you dominate effortlessly and time disappears while delivering exceptional value
• Breaking through requires recognizing when you're self-sabotaging and identifying what aspects of recruitment truly energize you
• Success isn't just about you—colleagues, clients, candidates and loved ones benefit when you operate at your highest level
• The industry loses 50-60% of new recruiters within six months because they never break through their upper limits

Are you willing to take the big leap or are you going to stay where it's safe? Send me a DM on LinkedIn or Instagram (@decxrec) and let me know what area you're ready to break through.
