Hello Readers,

When other people tell you cannot do this and you cannot do that it reinforces any perceived limitations within your own mind. Whatever beliefs, attitudes, motivations and knowledge that make people believe that this is not possible for you, for them or for anyone else there is always a more positive enlightened someone who will rightly tell that it is possible and you can do it. Just because most people have said you cannot do it it does not mean they are right and the true answer lies within you.

Obviously to be within the bounds of realistic possibility there will be some things you will not be able to do and there are obvious examples of this. For example, and for whatever reason, how many of us could be a racing driver or a brilliant scientist or inventor who makes a world changing discovery or be an Einstein.   Even then there are enlightened and learned people who believe that this potential for genius and for achievement is metaphysically there for any soul.

Your own life's experience and circumstances may have formed your belief that some things are not possible for you. Indeed you may not have ever considered doing something till now or consciously thought it was possible. However the wonderful realisation is that though there are things you thought you could not do, when you have actually done them you have discovered that you are pretty good at them! You've found that you have a talent or aptitude towards something artistic or musical or practical or even something very challenging. Another thoughtful aware person may have seen this within you and encouraged you to finally take action towards doing it. There may also have been other people who have told you that you could not possibly do something or even actively discouraged you from doing it.   Is it not better to go with someone who says you can do something than to listen to those who say you cannot do it?

So always remember in doing something you have never really considered but perhaps may have always had a inner yearning for the challenge will be inspiring and lead you to a certain level of attainment and satisfaction once you have achieved it.   It will give you more fulfilment and direction and even perhaps other positive benefits.   But if you do decide to take action into doing new things the motivation should always be to do it for yourself first.   And you will also gain more self esteem from knowing that you have done something that others have told you that you could not do or would not do. This will prove them wrong and give you a well deserved feeling of great satisfaction. Now isn't this self-empowerment worth striving towards?   It could make life more euphoric.
