SPEAKER_00 (00:00):
Life is waiting for you each day, and you have to
prepare for each challenge alongthe way toward success.
It's not simple, but it can bedone.
Welcome to my common sensemotivation episodes.
I'm Chris FantasticPow.
You can only see the level thatyou're at.
Today I want to challenge yourperspective because the truth is

(00:22):
you can only see the level thatyou're at.
See, it's hard to grow whenyou're standing still inside
your own point of view.
Most people never step out ofthe mental walls they've built
around who they think they are.
They say things like I can't dothat, I'm not built for that, or
that's not for me.
But here's what's wild.

(00:43):
There are people watching youright now who see your potential
clearly.
They see the version of you thatyou've blinded yourself to.
It's like being a player in themiddle 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 opportunitiesare, the open space, the next

(01:06):
move.
That's how perspective works.
You can only see what yourcurrent level allows you to, and
to grow, you've got to bewilling to climb higher.
Growth requires humility, thekind that says maybe there's
more that I can't see yet.
It takes courage to admit you'vebeen viewing life from the

(01:27):
ground floor when there's arooftop view waiting.
Surround yourself with peoplewho see more in you than you see
in yourself.
And instead of defending yourlimits, borrow their vision
until you develop your own.
If you stay in your head, you'llstay at your level.
If you expand your mind, youelevate your life.

(01:50):
If you change your view, youchange your direction.
Today stop saying I can't andstart asking, what am I not
seeing?
Because your next level isn'tout of reach, it's just out of
view.
And that means seek out peoplewho see more in you than you see
in yourself.
Don't get offended when someonechallenges your small view.

(02:12):
Thank them for trying to expandit.
Be willing to admit you don'tknow everything, because the
minute you think you've arrived,you stop seeing new
possibilities.
Step outside of your comfortzone often.
Every new experience adds a newlens to your perspective.
And here's the truth.
Sometimes it's not the worldholding you back, it's your view

(02:35):
of it.
Your mind can be a box or it canbe a bridge.
The choice is yours.
You have to remember every levelof life comes with a new way of
seeing.
The person you were five yearsago couldn't see the
opportunities you have now, andthe person you'll become five
years from today will look backand say, Wow, I was thinking too

(02:56):
small.
So ask yourself, am I livingbased on what I can see or what
I'm willing to believe?
If you stay stuck in what yousee, you stay stuck where you
are.
But if you choose to expand yourview, to learn, to grow, to
stretch, you'll start seeingopportunities that were
invisible before.

(03:18):
That's why I always tell peoplewhen life feels confusing,
frustrating, or unclear, don'tjust change your situation,
change your elevation.
Because clarity doesn't alwayscome from doing more, sometimes
it comes from seeing better.
And remember, you can't solve aproblem from the same level of
thinking that created it.

(03:39):
You can't lead others higher ifyou refuse to climb yourself.
You can't build a new futurewith an old perspective.
So today open your eyes towhat's possible.
Step out of your head, challengeyour limits, borrow the vision
of those who believe in youuntil you can believe it for
yourself.
Because your next level isn'tout of reach, it's just out of

(04:04):
view.
Make it happen.
