Breaking Out of the Box: Discovering Your Full Potential

Introduction:?

I have been immersed in an intensive speaker training journey with Amy and Michael Port at Heroic Public Speaking. Throughout this process I have gained speaking craft, stage presence, and dramatically improved my speaking ability. However, I recently gained an insight that I was not expecting, about breaking free from the self-imposed boxes we create in various aspects of our lives. I wanted to share what I learned with you.

Unlocking Your True?Voice:?

The training involves daily vocal warm ups, the emphasis of these warm ups is not merely on the health benefits but more importantly on unlocking our true voices. It wasn’t until recently that I understood what this meant and how impactful of a lesson this can be for not only me, but business owners around the country.

The Box Metaphor:?

Brian, one of the faculty members at Heroic, coached me during a session, and the insight he gave me was profound. He directly stated that I had put my voice in a box. This box was defined was defined by my stoic, serious, academic like way of speaking. The realization hit me hard?—?to connect genuinely with my audience, I needed to break free from the confines of this self-created box.

I have more depth, I have more range, my voice has more to offer. But only if I am willing to break free of the box.?

The Ripple?Effect:?

This revelation extended beyond speaking, making me question the boxes I’ve built around my health, wealth, family, faith and more. It made me ponder how many business owners, despite their success, are held back by self-imposed limitations, much like I was with my voice.

Breaking Free:?

How many of us have confined ourselves to boxes, believing we’re not good with money, can’t handle taxes, or are incapable of change? The lesson is simple yet profound?—?change your perspective, break free from the boxes you’ve created, and witness the possibilities that emerge. It’s about embracing change, recognizing the boxes you’ve built, and challenging the belief that you can’t transcend them.

Conclusion:?

My journey in unlocking my true voice served as a powerful metaphor for breaking free from self-imposed limitations. As I delve into the other areas of my life encased in metaphorical boxes, I encourage you to do the same. Recognize the potential you possess, don’t let your boxes hold you back, and unleash the impact you were destined to make. The power to change lies within?—?open those boxes and see what possibilities await
