Are You Living Fully or Just Getting By?

Are you living life by design or by default?

Everyday, we make choices - big or small, that shape our journey. But are these choices intentional, or are we driven by routine & external pressures?

TODAY’S TOPIC

• 3 types of life we navigate

• Identifying the one are you living?

• How to build a ‘charged’ life?

3 TYPES OF LIFE

We all navigate three types of lives—caged, comfortable, and charged.

The caged life keeps you confined, surrounded by barriers of fear & doubt. It’s where potential is stifled & dreams remain dreams.

The comfortable life offers security but stagnation. It’s the complacency that comes with predictability, where growth takes a backseat.

The charged life is where energy meets purpose. It’s vibrant, dynamic & full of opportunities! Here, challenges are embraced, & growth is constant.

IDENTIFYING THE LIVE YOU ARE LIVING

𝟭. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲

↳ You often ask yourself, “Will I survive?”

↳ Living caged either in the past or in expectations of others; as the imprisoned, obedient life.

↳ Identity trapped in a tight box of beliefs about what is possible for you.

𝟮. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲

↳ You often ask yourself, “Will I be accepted & succeed?”

↳ You feel a sense of satisfaction and confidence about who you are and where you’re going.

↳ Even though everything might be “fine,” there’s often an underlying feeling that there could be something more; life starts to feel stale.

𝟯. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲

↳ You ask yourself, “Am I living my truth? Am I living an inspired life?”

↳ One filled with heightened levels of energy, passion, and engagement.

↳ You are fully engaged with activities that push you beyond your comfort zone, leading to a sense of flow and fulfillment.

Truth is we have all lived each of these types.

The key is challenging yourself to aspire for a charged life.
