Quote #302, My Thoughts and YOUR thoughts

Here goes blog quote #302...

"Go as far as you can see. When you get there, you will be able to see farther."
-J.P Morgan-


I took this as a reminder that people have no idea where their boundaries are until they push themselves to the limits. Let's take an extreme example of an Olympian. Do you think when they start out training they ever even dreamed, times 10, how far they would push their bodies? How about the new, aspiring marathoner. Starts running 2 miles, then 4, then works his way up to 12, then 20 and all the sudden... training for 26 miles. Loking back says are you kidding? Wow Look how far I've come.

And what about infants? When they crawl, they attempt to take their first step and wipe out. Heck, 4 years later, they are popping wheelies on their bikes in the streets.

I believe Morgan is suggesting to push yourself as far as you can. Stretch. Each time you do, it won't feel as awkward. Then, you can go further in a new 'out of comfort zone.' Soon you are well past what you ever imagine you could do.It's pretty cool stuff.

That's my view...what say you?
