“There isn’t a person anywhere who isn’t
capable of doing more than he thinks he can.”
Henry Ford
DR. G’S COMMENTS: What do you expect from yourself? What do
you think is possible? What “unbreakable” limits
are you placing on yourself as an excuse for not going for it? Henry
Ford is absolutely right. You can always do more than you think. You
can always do better than your best. Limits and handicaps are placed in
your life for you to overcome them. They are not put there as a reason
to whine. Our world is a never ending testimony how in every impossible
resides a “possible.” Question your limiting
beliefs. Challenge them through personal action. Train yourself on a
daily basis to get in the habit of trying to do the impossible. Go
directly after your “I can’ts.” Do not
give in to them. Do not let your “I
can’ts” define who you are and what you can do.
Your “I can’ts” and
“I’ll never’s” are terrible
liars and you don’t want to listen to them! As an athlete and
a person you are always limited by what you believe is possible.
Temporarily suspend your limiting beliefs and go after it anyways. And
if you fall on your face, get your butt back up and try it again, and
again and again if necessary. You can always do more than you think you
can. ALWAYS!
