The Question nobody asked you:
Think about the biggest decisions of your life.
Your career.
Where you live.
How you spend your days.
Now ask yourself something uncomfortable:
how many of those decisions did you actually make?
Not chose from a menu someone else wrote.
Actually made. From scratch.
Without a path already laid out in front of you.
Most of us followed a sequence.
School led to exams.
Exams led to university or a trade.
That led to a job.
The job led to a mortgage.
The mortgage led to staying in the job.
And somewhere in the middle of all that forward motion,
we stopped asking whether we were heading somewhere we actually wanted to go.
Nobody sat you down at fourteen and said:
"What kind of life do you want?"
They said:
"What do you want to be when you grow up?"
....which is a completely different question.
One asks about living.
The other asks about earning.
Here's what's strange.
If you put a flea in a jar with a lid on it,
the flea will jump and hit the lid.
Over and over.
Eventually it stops jumping that high.
Then you remove the lid.
The flea could leave any time.
But it doesn't.
It's been trained.
Not by force.
By repetition.
The question isn't whether you're in a cage.
The question is whether the lid is still there,
or whether you just think it is.
What's one thing in your life you do purely because
"that's just how it's done"?
Drop it below.
Let's see what we find.
