Limits
























Icarus flew to a height too great for him . The sun melted the wax on this wings, skillfully crafted by his father , ultimately sending him plummeting down to his death .

Throughout history have we not seen those who have fallen? The higher you go the harder you fall , that is the truth and the truth which we shall live by even though we choose to deny.

How much is too much? What defines an audacious dream and what defines a realistic dream?
Why are geniuses sometimes dismissed as madmen , fools , dreamers , why are they confined to the narrow mindsets adopted by the ignorant ?

How do we know when to stop . What are our limits?

The human body can only do so much. The human mind can do a little more. It can imagine feats that the body would be incapable of. It sees this inability as a problem .

" Problems? I don't want your problems. Find Solutions . " A familiar quote by an inspiring trainer.

From Inability and Inhibitions come Problems. From Problems come Ideas .

We are missing Solutions.
Ideas , we can say , are semi-formed. Yes, it is an idea. Yes, it may work. Yes , you NEED to try it out. Ideas aren't always the most realistic thing there is. Audacious, unbelievable , but somewhat possible.

From Ideas we move to Action . Without Action there will be no Progress and without Progress we shall have no Solution at the end of the day . What was once flowing water will go stagnant and what is stagnant shall become an eyesore.

What inhibits us from the Action is , fear. Fear is undeniably a double-edged blade of an instinct.
It protects us from harm . Fight or Flight. Adrenaline rush -it gives us the extra push to save ourselves.

Sometimes fear renders us useless.

Big problem.

What is our Solution?
