Self Limitations

A variation on yesterday's theme--consider this from Chungliang Al Huang--

"Many people have bought into stories of self-limitations. People who argue FOR their limitations are limited. You need to know that, whatever you imagine your limitations in life to be, if your willing to trust the enormous capacity for growth that you've been given and take the necessary steps to develop yourself, you will redefine and explore the boundaries of your full potential."

The above quote applies to athletic, as well as non-athletic endeavors.

The reality is--we set limits on ourselves because we don't have the confidence or we don't recognize our potential to accomplish infinitely more than we think we can. Then again,the harsh reality for many is---they don't really want what they say they want, they don't want to do the 'work". I've always thought that if you are doing something athletic like say running, isn't all the "work" a labor of love?

Remember what Yiannis said.
30 minutes easy running today with stretching and much walking after.
What did you do?
