Test your limits

"Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." ---T.S. Elliot

How do you know what you can or cannot do until you have tried?

People who will not gamble on their own selves but will risk everything on another person are really shortchanging their own selves.  When is the last time that you took a risk?  Have you ever felt a little nudge from your inner self that gave you a desire or an inkling that you should take a risk?  Ever wanted to try something or do something and did not, only to find that someone else did it because you did not and they were successful?

How do you really know what your limits are if you do not test them?  Think of the emotional high when you succeed at something that you thought you could not do.  Remember that feeling.  Cherish it and keep it in your memory banks forever and draw on it when you tend to sink into a routine.

Every day take a risk on something that will improve your life and situation.  Try it and see how far that you can go.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Today I am going to take a risk and gamble on me and my abilities until I discover my limits.
