Life is a laboratory for testing the limitations found in my mind.  Although limitations appear real, appearances are deceiving.  The only way to find out if they are real is to test them.  I can talk about them and look at them from every angle.  I can think about them and analyze them.  I can ask my family and friends about them.  Still, I never know if they are real until I test them.

The Life Long Disoriented don’t understand that limitations first happen in their mind.  When limitations pop into their thoughts, they accept them as a fact rather than test them.  That is one reason why they lead such miserable lives. They are saddled by limitations that exist only in their mind.

Testing limitations is the only way to reach my dreams.  When I test them, I always find that I can do more than I thought I could.  It’s rare to discover that I can do less, unless I just don’t try.  Most of my limitations disappear when I do two things.  First, I act as if my dreams are possible.  Second, I act as if I cannot fail.  I don’t worry about my limitations, because most of them vanish when exposed to the power of persistent action.
