"No one can get past their limit"

[i] Each and every person has a limit to there capacity, and that limit can never be crossed. And if you tend to break those, the limits get redefined. Suppose a person can run up to 60kms in one hour. And that too with just tooo much of effort. And one day, he is able to cover this much distance in, say, 59 minutes only. The instance he reaches the limit, it gets redefined to 60kms in 50 minutes or so. And thus that person is still within limit, though he almost made it. As you see, no one can cross their limits....[/i] I find this view rather pessimistic and saddening. What do you think? Have you ever?

Hora sweetie, give me a minute to get over the shock first, okay. Okay, now anyone can get past their own limits, you just have to know how to deal with it and how to handle it. I have been there and i lived to tell the tale. Now tell me what is biting your butt about this. Don't be shy. TATA.

Actually it was something we 'learned' today in college. I don't know why he suddenly got into this, but I guess it had to do something with our own limit to concentrate LOL So you say only sky is the limit, or not even that... sounds quite encouraging Nothing personal for me. I just didn't agree with that view. But his is the word Funny, I was just watching an image titled "Mom! He keeps biting my butt!"

You are freaking impossible, do you know that? Well tell that one who teaches you, i might come and visit and change all that very fast. He doesn't seem to make an impression on you at all. I think i will be teaching you instead.

You are most welcome only if this connection permitted this. You will surely set it to fire after a few days(reason my being offline)...

I think the key is to understand our limits but not be defined by them however. There are a lot of times where we reach our limits in something in life. Yet, what's to stop us from getting to something beyond those limits? Just a little bit further. After all, if we think we are done, then we never would do anything in life. Therefore, I think that I try to just get a bit beyond my limit. Not too much but just enough where I can say that I have tried.

Wise thoughts... My limits seem pretty low... whatever I do I always think like whew I couldn't have done that. Thank God! Really I'm in a need to reconsider what I can and cannot do! So clueless...
