“Don’t limit what we believe is possible,” Brett Portelli. We can find success in myriad ways. We plan and we think we are thinking big but the reality is we’ve capped ourselves. We set a limit of x amount of people we want to share a message with, we say that when y happens we are successful, or we think a certain number makes it so. What if we could go higher? What if you could do more? This isn’t solely about pushing beyond a limit, this is about understanding that there is no limit, only levels. There is no cap. We have great capacity and so few of us use it. So few of us share what we know because we don’t believe in ourselves or our ability to carry the message. These things wouldn’t be ours if they weren’t meant to be. It’s true that in certain positions we can only see so far so we may believe that we are peaked. But once we turn around, change the vantage point, or climb just a bit higher, we see there is more. There are endless possibilities in this world and when we are on the right path we are unstoppable.
I want to reinforce that we are all capable of that type of momentum. Once we start something that is meant to be, incredible support and forces and energy conspire to open the doors and continue our progression. Just because we can only see what’s in front of us now doesn’t mean more doesn’t exist. There’s a quote that says the top of one mountain is the bottom of the next. I used to feel overwhelmed by that because, to me it implied that there is an endless journey toward something that we may never attain. Now I see it as a journey of possibility. How amazing is it that when we get to each level that there are doors we didn’t know about, more to learn, and new ways to expand? Just because we can’t see it yet doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist. In yesterday’s piece, I wrote that I wasn’t sure who decided the bottom was bad. The bottom doesn’t necessarily mean that we’ve fallen—it may mean that we’ve found the beginning of our next opportunity. It can be foundational or it can be a springboard. The point is, it’s our choice.
When we approach life with the mindset that we need to learn as much as we can, to share as much as we can, to help as much as we can, and to love as much as we can, we find opportunity in everything we do. We have to learn to accept that what we’ve been told so far may not be 100% accurate because those lessons were taught and learned with the knowledge we had at that time. We are meant to expand and explore. We are curious by nature and purposeful in connection so there is nothing other than the imaginary framework we’ve passed down for millennia holding us back. Even now with the greatest technologies the world has experienced, we still limit their use and function. We aren’t meant to confine ourselves to parameters set by man—we are meant to align with the energy we’ve been given, the energy inside of us that tells us exactly what we need to know, exactly who we are. We are meant to be limitless. Step outside of the box and look at the world that awaits. You never know what you will find—it may be the entire universe at our fingertips.
