It's you that's holding you back

MrJoe in Audio

Ever feel like you’re stuck within boundaries you didn’t choose? In this video, I share a powerful thought experiment involving a goose, a bottle, and two constraints that can’t be broken...or can they? This ancient Buddhist story challenges the rules and constraints we impose on ourselves, showing that sometimes the only way to free ourselves is to break the very rules that keep us trapped.

📌 Main Points:

  • The "Goose in a Bottle" thought experiment
  • Why we need to question the rules and constraints in our lives
  • How self-imposed limits hold us back
  • Breaking your own mental "bottles" to achieve personal growth

This is part of a series inspired by my upcoming book, The Modern CEO. Join me as we explore unconventional ways of thinking for today’s leaders.
