"A person is limited only by the thoughts that he chooses."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Ralph Marston says, "Your limitations are not imposed on you.
They are accepted by you." You are not limited to the life you
now live. It has been accepted by you as the best you can do at
this time. Any time you're ready to go beyond the limitations
currently in your life, you're capable of doing that by choosing
different thoughts.
We each earn the income we do today because that is the amount we
have limited ourselves to earn. We could easily earn 5, 10, 20
times or more if we did not limit ourselves through the thoughts
we maintain. Don't believe that's true? Surely you know people
who earn much more than you who don't have your education, your
skills, or your intelligence. So why do they earn more than you?
I love the story of George Dantzig that Cynthia Kersey wrote
about in "Unstoppable." As a college student, George studied
very hard and always late into the night. So late that he
overslept one morning, arriving 20 minutes late for class. He
quickly copied the two math problems on the board, assuming they
were the homework assignment. It took him several days to work
through the two problems but finally he had a breakthrough and
dropped the homework on the professor's desk the next day.
Later, on a Sunday morning, George was awakened at 6 a.m. by his
excited professor. Since George was late for class, he hadn't
heard the professor announce that the two unsolvable equations on
the board were mathematical mind teasers that even Einstein
hadn't been able to answer. But George Dantzig, working without
any thoughts of limitation, had solved not one, but two problems
that had stumped mathematicians for thousands of years.
Simply put, George solved the problems because he didn't know he
couldn't.
Bob Proctor tells us to "keep reminding yourself that you have
tremendous reservoirs of potential within you, and therefore you
are quite capable of doing anything you set your mind to. All
you must do is figure out how you can do it, not whether or not
you can. And once you have made your mind up to do it, it's
amazing how your mind begins to figure out how."
And that's worth thinking about.
