Is Your Life Too Small for You?

A characteristic of many people who seek me out to work with is that they feel their life is too small. They feel stifled, hemmed in, trapped by a life that is unsatisfying (despite the 'good job, nice house, lovely partner and family' they seem to have). Have you ever felt this way? Like your life is something you've grown out of? Much like that favourity fairy dress or batman outfit from childhood.

Perhaps this is true...and it doesn't make your current life 'bad' - just as it didn't make the fairy dress 'bad' - imagine if you were still trying to wear said fairy dress today - might that be a little restricting, constricting and frankly, odd!? Have you outgrown your life? Are you too big for the 2.4 average life that others are 'happy' in? (And are they really, truly happy?)

If you're feeling restricted and dis-satisfied by your life, it's time for you to play a bigger game - what do you need to do to start 'playing big'?

And for me, this feeling of restriction is a positive thing...becasue it shows growth. You can only get bigger as a person by growing as a person - how wonderful that we are ready to move on to a new phase. The timing couldn't be better to get a bigger part in a bigger play on a bigger stage!
