A speaker uses the children's game tag as a metaphor for feeling stuck in life. When you're tagged, you're frozen until someone taps you free. The question: where are you frozen, who needs you to tap them, and who can tap you to move forward?
Good morning. Here is your moment of yes tag. You're it. You know, you can learn a lot by watching kids and how they play. And if you pay attention close enough, you can actually gain a lot of inspiration from it. I was watching my kids this weekend and they were playing a lot of tag, capture the flag, and things like that. And the idea, the insight that struck me while watching them play is if you get tagged, you're usually, you know, frozen or you're put in jail. You're kind of stuck where you are. And the way that you are freed to keep playing is when one of your teammates comes along, taps you, or frees you. They set you free. And it made me think to myself, how many of us are stuck? How many of us are frozen, paralyzed, mesmerized by our current situation? And how many of us go throughout our day looking to tap others, to free them, to, to allow them to move on and to progress and grow and play? And so I just— it really hit me today like, wow, am I carrying around a mindset that is looking to see the light in others to free them so that they can maintain or they can achieve their potential? And where am I stuck? Am I allowing others to come along and tag me and free me and set me free? So take that insight with you today. How can you tap others and set them free? And how do you need to be set free right now? Let's see if we can expose that light in ourselves as we expose it in others. Tag, you're it! That's your moment of yes for today.
