Set Your Limitations!

Unsure of which pain is worse- the shock of what happened or the ache for what never will!

We are born helpless. We can’t walk, can’t talk, can’t feed ourselves, can’t even pay for our own expenses.

In a “normal” healthy individual, Stage One will last until late adolescence and early adulthood. For some people, it may last further into adulthood. A select few wake up one day at age 45 realizing they’ve never actually lived for themselves and wonder where the hell the years went.

The constant search for approval and validation. The absence of independent thought and personal values...

We must be aware of the standards and expectations of those around us. But we must also become strong enough to act in spite of those standards and expectations when we feel it is necessary. We must develop the ability to act by ourselves and for ourselves.

Stage Two involves a lot of trial & error and experimentation. We experiment with living in new places, hanging out with new people, imbibing new substances, and having way more interest in other people's life than ours.

We try things. Some of them go well... Some of them don’t. The goal is to stick with the ones that go well .

Your limitations are important because you must eventually come to the realization that your time on this planet is limited and, therefore, you should spend it on things that matters the most. That means realizing that just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should do it. That means realizing that there are opportunity costs to everything and that you can't have it all...
