Master Limitations and Be Unstoppable

"Imitation births limitation. Try to be the best version of yourself. Because, therein lies the springboard towards leading a life totally devoid of limits." 

As many of you reading this life-transforming message today may already know, we all have been victim of some type of limitation(s) at some stage in our lives. But, somehow we still move on with our daily undertakings, without bothering too much about the subconscious impacts of these limitations. 

While some limitations are visible, other simply aren't. In fact, the percentage of the population reeling from the pernicious effects of internal limitations far outweigh those suffering from visible limitations. That is not to say that one is more severe than the other. As is the nature humans, our general composition in all its meaning, vary distinctly. In other words, what may matter to me, may not be an issue for another suffering the same fate. 


Q.What's the nature of your perceived limitations? How have they shaped both your social and work life? Why are you allowing those limitations to control you? Is there a realistic chance that you can be liberated from them? 

Well, I can begin to answer the aforementioned questions myself, but, I won't. If you have been or currently being plagued by limitations, such as; fear (fight or flight syndrome), attitude (can't do; never do), poor personal outlook, excuses (procrastination), belief and confidence issues, defects, lack of focus, mental laziness, introversion, uncertainty or what have you, then its high time to take ACTION. 

To become one with yourself, is to be rid of limitations and attain a state where you are genuinely fulfilled and happy. For this to happen, you must stop the blame game and self-victimisation, and do some soul searching. You do this by asking yourself some preying questions that will help bring forth the peace within. 

Based on personal experiences, this enemy called, "limitation," controlled my life from childhood and almost destroyed me. Its effects were so severe, that, I thought of completely isolating myself away from the entire world. When confronted with a social situation, I often shy away from conversing with strangers, because, I was too sensitive and concerned about their perception of me. Maybe, I should have ignored these negative feelings, and, heeded the voice of reasoning on the inside a bit more. But, the state of mind I was in, would not allow me at the time. I'm sure that I am not alone on this one!

My limitations were ignored, instead, I worked on my external appearance, in hope that somehow, those negative voices will someday go away, and I will become more likeable with a sense of belonging. Low and bold, the results were short-lived. It was not until I decided to take ACTION, and train my subconscious, that I began to heal. 

Dear reader, I want to encourage you that, it doesn't matter what you are going through right now. if you are willing to make some painful, but, necessary sacrifices, and take that bold step towards alleviating those hang-ups that has served as a bottleneck to your destiny and purpose, then you will certainly win and become unstoppable in all areas of your life. I did it, so can you!

World of Possibilities

The world is an oyster to many, and to some, a place to make your mark and achieve the best you can. To me, I see the world differently, and I think you should, as well. Take a trip down memory lane, no matter how young or old you are. Do you remember that one moment when happiness seems to be endless and dreams, boundless? Maybe a point in time when you had almost no care in the world. Truth be told, we all want to be happy, successful and accomplished in life. I see no reason why we can't all achieve these and other desires in our heart, if the opportunity presents itself.

            Take a good look around you, and see if you notice anything of interest? Not just looking on the surface, you need to take a deeper insight at what you observe. There are boundless avenues all around your surroundings to tap into. Certainly, you can get what you yearn for or should I say, deserve in your hearts of heart, if you are willing to take chances, grab the bull by the horn and run wild with it.

This causes the need to begin to question ourselves, our capabilities, and financial positions, and not taking the time to focus on the solutions to the task before us. These questions I like to refer to as battle thoughts, which, sometimes destroys our ability to embark on anything in the first place. This is normal, but, nonetheless counter-productive to our goals in life.  

            Opportunities will always unveil themselves in different forms and from various outlets. Some quite obvious and simplistic, and others requiring a little more thought to get off the ground. The most pertinent thing is that we are able to conjure enough courage, boldness and foresight to comprehend the end-game. The latter is where that opportunity will lead you, and how far you can take it. Most billionaires, successful entrepreneurs and multinational corporations are opportunists. Where their competitors fail, they consistently succeed. This is the mindset we all need to harness all opportunities.

Overcoming the Traits of a Quitter

Image result for quitters trait            This is a topic that has been in my mind for a while now, and I don't know why. But, as I journey through this chaos, called, life, it doesn't take much to begin comprehending the true essence of our individual and collective struggles to succeed in all our endeavours.


            Well, have you ever pondered on the true definition of life, Itself? Many people simply exist from day-to-day, and you can tell from their mannerism and way of life. Just like in a car assembly line, where every component plays a key role in putting together the end product. Similarly, in life, we all have a mission to fulfil on our way to obtaining true fulfilment and eventual happiness.

           Sad, but true, not many of us appreciate the need to play our part in order to get to our place of destiny. Whether you believe it or not, "we are sole beneficiaries of the actions and inactions of our ancestors." If they never remained persistent in their quest to achieving the plethora of technological advances, and developments we now enjoy, then we wouldn't enjoy the standard of life we experience today, especially, in the western world. Today, in many places in Africa, and the Caribbean, the inactions of their ancestors left a trail of penury, under-development, slavery mentality, and a sense of inferiority among the inhabitants. Things don't have to be this way, and one that needs to change.

            If you want to be anything in life, then begin to work on the constituents of your mind and thought processes. Quitters imbibe the belief that they, "never do, won't do and can't do." All these are toxic thoughts, and we must be purged of them. Nobody knows you, like you know yourself. Therefore, the only person with the capacity to transform your thoughts is you. "The state of your health and wellbeing (both mental and physical) is connected to your thoughts." Sometimes, in the morning I wake up not feeling like doing much, but, instead blame it on the weather or make some hilarious excuse. This is mental laziness, and a common trait in a potential quitter.
            Want to be more than you are at the moment and get more out of life, then make up your mind to go from a quitter to a winner. The latter is a doer, game-changer and pioneer, even in adverse, ominous and challenging circumstances. So, develop a mind of steel, one that is impenetrable by those who are prolific denigrators. Know your worth, capabilities, and redact limitations from your mental dictionary.
            Quitters hate winners, which is a common trait among the former. Instead of loathing those who are successful in their respective fields and businesses, try to find out what makes them tick and get to where they are today. That's how you get rid of the quitting trait.
