What's Your Limit?

"The sky is not the limit. The limit is what you set."~Buzz Aldrin

What is your limit? Are you allowing someone else to set your limits for you? Why? And if you're setting your own limits, are they high enough or are they just a little out of reach, so that with a little effort, you can reach them?

I constantly ask people what their BHAG is. (Big, Hairy, Audacious, Goal) The reply I get most of the time is something that is a little out of reach, but wholly doable. Why? A BHAG should be something that is impossible to reach! First start doing what is possible and soon you will be doing the impossible...But it will never happen if your goals are too easy.

We often limit ourselves by what we think, what we do and how we do it. Change that thinking right now! Realize that it is your choice to set your limits high or low. While you will get some satisfaction by reaching a goal, if it was too easy, you will regret not challenging yourself enough to stretch yourself. Get out of that comfort zone and GROW!
