Sometimes it’s time to get past your limitations.  Sometimes, it’s time for you to set aside the self-imposed limits and go for it!  Maybe today is that day.

Ω

How many limits have you imposed on yourself?  You may not think much about it, but we all have a tendency to set sometimes unconscious limits on ourselves.

“What types of limits are we talking about? ” you might ask.  Think to yourself about the things that you do not even consider because you feel it would be too risky.  Maybe you do not even consider changing careers because you feel you are too far along in your current career and see the change as nearly impossible.  Maybe you are not willing to learn a new skill because all you can see is the years and years of practice, learning and lessons.

Yes, maybe some of those things are not that important to you, so you let them sit on the sidelines.  However, when so many of these “self-imposed limits” stack up, we begin to entrap ourselves in the mundane and ordinary.   Maybe today is the day that you break through one or more of these limits and start growing again!

As you go about this day, observe yourself looking for most likely unconscious limits that you have imposed on yourself.  Most of the time we do not even consider something, because we already unconsciously dismissed it.  Observe your actions and the decisions that you make today.  Ask yourself why you are doing things the way you are doing them, and not reinventing them to keep up with the current technologies and processes.  Ask yourself what you would do differently if you had unlimited time, money and talent.

At the end of the day, you should find a few areas where you may not even have been aware of the self-imposed limits you have set.  Now think about what you might do to overcome those limits.   It can be difficult to break through the “old mindset” that you have spent years and possibly decades developing.  However, in order to grow to the fullest potential within each of us, we need to keep up with an ever-changing world.  We need to allow ourselves, to be “ever-changing” as well.

When we have the courage to make changes to the normal practice we have developed in our lives, we are allowing our creativity and our talents to shine.  Find the changes that you need to make in your life, and do them!  When we commit to ourselves, and we move forward with integrity and love there is no way we can fail!
