The Journey #9: Limits Are Everything
Limits are everything. They are the often unspoken ties that bind us to an unsatisfying live… the shackles that once released lead to magical experiences… and the crutches that many of us need to get anything worthwhile done.
Limits are contradictory. They can work for us, or against us.
I have one vitally important suggestion for you: make conscious decisions about what limits—if any—you will honor each day of your life.
If you learn this lesson well, you will make different decisions on different days. One day, you will banish all limits to fully unlock your imagination. Another day, you will impose many limits, so that you can turn an idea into some very real and tangible.
This is a simple concept that is extraordinarily difficult to internalize and adopt. Do not make the mistake that you “get it” just by reading this page. I’ll be sharing much more in the days and weeks to come.
