If I asked you the maximum number of push-ups you
could do? You would probably answer a low number like 5, as push-ups are
not there on your scale of important things to do. What about if you did your
maximum of five and I said that you could rest for a while. Could you do
another five after you had rested for a short while? Of course you could. If
you kept doing five push-ups twice a day for a week, could you do 10 push-ups,
by the end of the week? Yes of course you could, but hold on a second, I
thought you said that the maximum number of push-ups you could do was five? If
you now kept doing 10 push-ups, twice a day for another week, could you now do
20 push-ups? I am sure that you are getting the picture. Five is not your maximum;
it is only your maximum for now.
There are no Limits to what we
can achieve
Start looking at everything in your life this same
way. Stop looking at your current abilities and level of skill and then using
this as the barometer to determine the size and scope of your dreams and
expectations. Allow your mind to see that your current level of skill and
ability is only a barometer of your potential right now; it is by no means a
measure of the maximum that you are capable of achieving.
Is It Common Practice?
I know this sounds like common sense, but if you
want to attract more success into your life, you cannot attract it with your
current level of skill and ability. You must first open your mind and explore
possibility, not from a position of your current abilities and capability, but
rather from a position of what you are capable of becoming, in the future. Once
you create a clear picture of what you want to see in your future, based on
what you can become. You immediately change your approach from one in which you
pursue something, which is beyond your grasp and your current ability, to
looking for ways to grow your knowledge, skill and ability to a level where you
can begin to become the kind of person you need to be to attract the type of
success you have visualised in your future.
Make this small shift and two
things will happen:
·
You will
be able to stretch yourself and see possibility, which would have seemed beyond
the realm of possibility before, when viewed from your current position. You
would now begin to see your world open up and all possibility would open up to
you. “NO-THING” is impossible any longer. All you need to do to attract any
level of success into your experience is map a path to become the type of
person who deserves the level of success you desire.
·
You will
stop pursuing success, as anything you pursue will elude you. You take the
daily action necessary to grow into the type of person you need to be to
attract the exact resources, people and circumstances you need to effortlessly
enjoy the success that you desire.
Break Free and Live your
Potential
The reason most people stay trapped in lives that
are unsatisfying and unfulfilling, is because they, keep looking at their
future possibility from their current position. It is impossible to see all you
are capable of achieving, if you do not step out of your current limited place
and view the future through a set of eyes, which is not limited by who you
currently are. See the future from a position of who you can become.
When you limit visualising possibility from a
position of what is, instead of what can be, you view your potential from a
very limited perspective. This narrow perspective will keep you trapped in your
self-imposed comfort zone, which has been constructed around your current
ability. Open your mind today and see that your current ability is by no means
your maximum ability. You are capable of achieving incredible things, if you
are willing to look at the future, through a pair of eyes that first sees what
you are capable of becoming and then using this as a barometer of possibility, to
help you see what you are capable of achieving.
Have Huge Expectations
Set you mind free and allow yourself to once again
have huge expectations and dream about all you are capable of achieving. Then
go about the business of investing time every day to grow yourself into the exact
type of person you need to be, to attract exactly that level of success into
your life. Shift your mind away from having and pursuing and start to focus
your energy and resources on becoming. This small shift will allow you to attract
what will feel like almost effortless success into your life.
