Are You a Caged Lion? Breaking Free to Build the Real Estate Career You Were Meant For

January 31, 20253 min read

What happens when you put a lion in a cage?

At first, it may seem safe—protected, even. Food is provided. The dangers of the wild are gone. But over time, something changes.

The lion, the King of the Jungle, was never meant to live behind bars.

Without the hunt, without the challenge, without the raw necessity of survival, the lion loses its edge. The once-mighty beast becomes passive, pacing, anxious, unsure of itself.

This is what happens when we trade ambition for comfort.

The same goes for your real estate career.

How many agents start with big dreams, only to settle for "safe" habits—choosing routine over risk, predictability over potential? The desire for security becomes a cage, keeping them from ever truly becoming the lion they were meant to be.


Caged Lion

Are You Living in a Cage or Owning the Wild?

We all have a choice:
✔ Stay where it's comfortable, waiting for opportunities to come to us… or
✔ Step into the unknown, take control, and hunt down the success we want.

Most agents play it safe. They:

  • Wait for leads to come to them instead of proactively generating business.

  • Avoid high-level conversations with potential clients out of fear of rejection.

  • Stick to what feels comfortable instead of learning new skills and strategies.

But here’s the reality: Comfort is the cage.

The best agents, the ones who dominate their markets, don’t wait to be fed. They hunt.


How to Break Free and Become the Lion You Were Meant to Be

If you’re ready to take control of your real estate career, it’s time to step out of the cage and into the wild. Here’s how:

1. Stop Waiting and Start Hunting

A lion doesn’t wait for its next meal to show up. It stalks, it strategizes, and it goes after what it wants.

🔹 Set daily prospecting goals – 30 calls, 10 follow-ups, 5 appointments.
🔹 Stop relying on "safe" leads – Expand your network, work referrals, and generate new opportunities.
🔹 Build momentum with consistency – Small daily actions lead to massive long-term success.

2. Take More Risks—The Jungle Rewards the Bold

Success doesn’t come from playing it safe. It comes from stepping into the unknown, even when you don’t feel ready.

🔹 Call that expired listing.
🔹 Walk into that attorney’s office and introduce yourself.
🔹 Start the YouTube channel you’ve been putting off.
🔹 Say yes to that speaking opportunity.

Lions don’t second-guess their strength. They know they were made to win.

3. Change Your Identity: You Are the Hunter, Not the Hunted

Most agents see themselves as small, constantly doubting their ability to compete. But the most successful agents believe they belong at the top.

🔹 Shift your mindset: You're not just an agent. You're the authority in your market.
🔹 Invest in coaching and accountability to keep your skills sharp.
🔹 Surround yourself with people who push you to level up.

When you believe you’re unstoppable, success follows.
