3 Types of Lives We Live - Brendan Burchard - The Charge

The three types of lives we live
By: Brendan Burchard in The Charge

1. The Caged Life

-You live caged in the past or in the expectations of others
-Never ventured into unknown or sought to break your boundaries
-Your identity is trapped in beliefs about what is possible for you
-You move, speak, and act like others want you to and you feel afraid to fail because others will judge you
-Experience is restricted
-Scared to disappoint your "masters"
-The world has cornered you by its unfair expectations and you hate the world for it
-You adapted your behaviours to accept external rewards and then got stuck in that cage

How to get out?

--Life flips you upside down and you are forced out of the cage
--Will power of MASSIVE PERSONAL EFFORT

Will I survive?

2. The Comfortable Life

-You have what everyone else has
-You feel engaged and thankful for your life
-Upon reflection, you are unexcited about your life
-You are unsure about your life and it appears mysterious
-You start to feel trapped and the world is stale
-You fear your potential has peaked

Will I be accepted or succeed?

BOTH the TRAPPED LIFE AND COMFORTABLE LIFE DESIRE MORE: They desire the Charged Life

3. The Charged Life

-Am I actualizing my potential?
-Joy and purpose felt in engaging in new and challenging activites
-Life is meaningful
-The world is filled with excitement and unlimited possibilities for growth
-Creating our own world
-Living the life we want
-Fully conscious control on life
-We hunger for the challenges that test our abilities
-Focus on contributing to the world
-Worry about doing what is right and meaningful
-Enjoy life and are deeply enthusiastic about life's challenges
-Focus on serving the world
-Consistent in all of this
