Push on the Wall

Most of us are held back by our own beliefs. In our minds these beliefs form high solid walls that cannot be crossed. Yet in real life they are often only made of chicken wire that can be pushed out of the way at will.

For example many business people are afraid to go after clients that are big enough to provide lucrative profits. They believe, “ I am not big enough” or “ We are not qualified enough” or “We do not have enough experience”. When you ask them why they think this they give you lots of reasons, “we read it”, “we heard it”, “we think it”.

We think it. Need I say more? They never pushed on the wall to see if it is solid or just thin wire. Every day pick one area and push the wall hard. Stretch your self. Go out and get rejected 50 times. Each time ask why you were rejected. Fix what you can and keep plugging forward. You almost always will accomplish things you never thought possible. Remember, the wall is only in your mind.
