Are Self Limitations Holding You Back?

It has been said by many people smarter than me, “that the only limitations we encounter in life are those self limiting ones we place on ourselves.” If this is true, and at this point I am neither agreeing or disagreeing with this premise, why then do so few people reach their full potential? Why do so many people feel stuck, out of control and without hope in their lives? Why do so many people, give up, quit, settle, resign themselves or operate out of blame, anger, guilt, resentment and self pity when it comes to the quality of their life? If this question were answered in a book by the same title, it would never sell. Why? Because the very people we are talking about here do not want to take the responsibility for their lives. They insist on pointing their finger toward something or someone else for the cause of their station or circumstances in life.

Each of us came into this world headed for greatness in some way. We were engineered for success at birth and conditioned for failure along the way. There is nothing we can not do if we put our mind and all of our energy and passion to it. The skeptics out there are thinking, sure Tim, I can fly.

I do not have the time nor the interest to deal with skeptics or critics. If that is their attitude. Certainly there are some physical limitations in some areas or with some people. My only point here is that, most of us could do more if we would only learn that most of our ceilings are self-imposed.

What inner mental images are you holding in your consciousness that may be holding you back? Is it the fear of failure or success? Is it the fear of rejection or public scorn? Is it an inner feeling of unworthiness? Or is it some other emotional issue or scar that you have failed to recognize or deal with?

I agree with you Tim, if we continually have low self-esteem we are hampering our very own personal growth and success. We should always believe in ourselves and to what we are capable of doing. That way we will never think less of ourselves but in everything, think that YOU CAN MAKE IT!
