It’s the memory of the last time things didn’t work out. The proposal that got rejected. The idea no one backed. The promotion you didn’t get. The project that failed. Even when the moment has passed, many people keep showing up as if that glass wall is still there. They stop speaking up in meetings. They play smaller than their potential. They stop reaching for bigger responsibilities. Not because they lack capability. Because past setbacks quietly taught them to expect the same result. That’s how invisible limits are built in the workplace. A failed presentation becomes fear of presenting. One bad quarter becomes fear of leading. A missed opportunity becomes a habit of holding back. But growth in your career often begins the moment you challenge that old story. Speak up again. Pitch the idea. Take on the stretch project. Apply for the role. Sometimes the only thing between where you are and where you want to be is the courage to test whether that wall still exists. More often than not, it doesn’t. The next breakthrough might be on the other side of the fear you’ve outgrown. ---------- Follow me Gav Blaxberg for more content like this. ♻ 𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞, 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭 to share with your network ♻ --- ## Transcripcion del video Transcripcion oficial de LinkedIn, embebida en la pagina publica del post.

Scientists placed a clear piece of glass inside a fish tank. On the left was a fierce Pike and on the right were several small fish swimming around. When the hungry Pike saw the small fish, it lunged forward to attack them, banged it, slammed into the glass and bounced back. The pipe couldn't believe it and kept charging again and again. But each attempt was useless. The repeated collisions knocked off its scales and hurt its head eventually. The Pike became afraid and retreated to the corner, trembling. Then the scientists quietly removed the glass. The small fish swam freely everywhere, even brushing against the Pikes mouth. But the Pike never opened its mouth to eat them. Even though it was starving, it refused to attack. In its mind, the small fish no longer existed, only the invisible wall remained. A few days later, the Pike starved to death, surrounded by food. This is known as the Pike effect. What destroys He was not your difficult, but the experience of past failures. That piece of glass is like a psychological shadow. It has already been removed, yet you keep acting as if it's still there. The person who stops halfway in pursuit of a dream, the project abandoned. Before it's fully tried, you think it's impossible. You think the whole world is full of walls, but in reality those walls exist only in your mind. Try crashing into it one more time, and try making one more effort. Maybe this time success is just on the other side. Stop staring at old scars, open your mouth, take the bite, break through the glass in your mind, and you'll find a new beginning.
