Reach out to your full potential

Everyone probably has experienced it. An object falls underneath your
bed or closet and in order for you to get it, you have to get down,
flat on your stomach, to reach it. What mostly happens next is, that
the object seems JUST too far away for you being able to reach it
easily. You try to reach out, but you only softly stroke the object, making it
roll away even further. Just when you thought it was too far away
already, you decide to try again, now putting in that extra little
effort. Reaching out further and by doing so grasping the object. Now,
you start thinking, why didn't you put in that extra little effort in
the first place? Even with half the extra little effort, you would've
made it already. So next time something rolls underneath your bed. Try to think about it. Reach out already with that extra little potential inside you. Since sometimes old strategies/habits, don't cut it anymore. We have to run into a dead end in order for us to grow. Open up for new habits. Installing new thinking patterns. In doing so, reaching out to our full potential.

Power of thought

I've always had a feeling that whatever would happen in the future,
if I couldn't imagine it, it wouldn't happen. Oo You could call it foresight! If I couldn't foresee it, I couldn't believe in it.
Making it impossible to become true.

The opposite is also true.
When I imagined something in my minds vision,
it almost always came to part.

When you can imagine something, when you put your vision into reality in your mind's eye, that image or vision is automatically valued important. Of course it has to be, why would you bother trying to envision it otherwise, right? While doing so, you reflect your vision upon yourself. You weigh its possibility. If it's a vision that doesn't match your inner self, it's just impossible to puzzle it together in your mind. Hence, never happening, if you can't imagine it.

I found this to be mixed with a couple of beliefs.

In the book: "The Monk who sold his ferrari.", the fictional character, Yogi Raman, mentioned a lake:
Whenever the Yogis found something important, they'd take the time to go to the lake and envision their dream into the lake. Sitting there for hours, reflecting on the idea.

There's also another more general belief you can link to this:
The power of believing. Limits of the mind. People tend to say: You gotta belief in something. Stand for something. There are some people that take this to the extreme. They say: If you don't belief in something, just for the slightest part. It would never happen. So whatever you really want in life, just believe in it 100%. Since the only limits you have, are in the mind.

Possibly, what I wrote so far was influenced by this.
Hearing about it along the way, made it clearer to put it to words.
None the less, the feeling of the experience was definitely mine. Making it truth for me.
Most likely also the only way possible of ever experiencing it. =)

That special person

How come, when in love, your face shows fear.
Tough when passion is far away, control, laughter and confidence comes easily?

Find that special person, that loves that fear on your face,
because she knows, she's the only one that can help you, to get rid of it. ^^ Love might mean being the only two persons who can make each others weakest moments, their most precious and strongest ones. = )
