When you feel boxed in…do you wait to be chosen, or step into something bigger?

There are moments where nothing is technically wrong, but everything feels misaligned.

You’re in the same place. The same routine. Watching the world move forward… without you.

And yet…you know you have something to offer.

In The Last Starfighter, Alex is stuck in a small town,
watching life pass him by. With no path and no momentum.
No one really sees what he could become.

That is until something shifts. Not because he changes, but because he’s placed in a different context.

And suddenly, what felt like limitation…no longer defines him.

Potential often goes unseen, not because it isn’t there, but because it hasn’t been placed in the right environment.

We wait to be recognized.
We wait to be chosen.

But those moments also present a choice:

Do you stay where you are…or step into something that feels uncertain, but true?

Reflection

We all experience this.

The sense that we don’t quite fit where we are.
That we’re meant for more… but can’t access it. And when the opportunity appears, it rarely looks safe. It looks unfamiliar. Unproven. Uncomfortable.

The question is not whether you’re ready. It is…will you go?

Video Review

Pay attention to the stories that stay with you.
They are not random.

They are pointing to something unresolved… or something waiting.
