All Things Become Possible

“You are the only problem you will ever have and you are the only solution.”
Bob Proctor

Recently I’ve been a part of a new project at work and I am always amazed by how we all almost subconsciously limit ourselves. Like always, our goal for the project is to make it the best we possibly can however there are many obstacles and challenges that stand in our way. Because of this, it becomes so easy for us to assume we can’t accomplish our objectives. And the interesting thing I’ve observed is that each member of the team seems to have different reasons why our goal for this project cannot be done. The truth is, we all have make-believe beliefs that impact our ability to see clearly, that give us excuses why things cannot be done, and that shape our vision and attitudes.

In life, for some reason, we seem conditioned to limit ourselves and to self-create roadblocks. We seem to compulsively believe we cannot. Instead of faith there is doubt, instead of action there is fear, and instead of passion there is reservation. The truth is however that so much is possible.

One major reason why this happens is because we betray ourselves. This happens when we fail to see that we are really the problem. Instead we blame others, make excuses, and look for the easy way out. We believe our perception is reality when in actuality we are shaped by our experiences and beliefs. And too often these experiences and beliefs create boundaries that do not exist.

So, in my project at work, each of us sees different reasons why our goal for the project cannot be done yet stepping back and viewing it from the outside I realize each of the obstacles can be overcome. So, how are limiting ourselves in our lives? What barriers have we created that simply do not exist? As we begin to tear down these beliefs, focus on our objectives, and push through our challenges, all things become possible.
