No imaginary limits

Tweet

Have you ever thought about this "imaginary limits" that we become accustomed to in life. I was reflecting on how men sometimes limit themselves in achieving their goals. I did an experiment with fleas by placing them into a bottle fitted with a lid. On observation, the fleas could try to escape but bounce back after hitting the lid. I did this for several times and the results were the same. Finally I decided to remove the lid, at guess what? The fleas could only jump up to the level they were reaching when the lid was on. I wondered why the poor fleas could not escape now that there was no lid. I left the bottle for some time but no single flea managed to escape. The fleas had become accustomed to the maximum level they could fly. I learnt a great lesson here. In life, we are sometimes accustomed to imaginary limits which hinder us from achieving our goals. Have you been a victim of this? Please share your thoughts!
