Except the ones you tell yourself…
The only limits you have are ones you set for yourself. You want it, grab it.
We may have somone in our life that tells us, “you can’t do that” or “you’ll never be able to accomplish that” or perhaps we tell ourselves these things. Sometimes in life, I think it is easeier to live with the notion that these barriers really do exist. Maybe it allows us to take the “easy” way out and/or it makes it less disheartening when we dont’ accomplish a goal.
One of the best values my mother instilled in us children was that the only true limitations we have are the ones we set for ourselves, anything is obtainable. My mother and father seperated when I was a young child. At this point, my mother could have crumbled and decided that it would be impossible to support 5 children on her own. Instead without much help from anyone, my mother realized that having a roof over our heads, food in our bellies and clothes on our backs were all musts. My mother when from being a personal secretary at AT&T. Mostly being busy with tasks such as booking employee golf outings to retiring as an area VP. This was just one example of how my mother taught us through her actions that we can accomplish all things that we are willing to work hard for. You have one life to live, live without limitations. If there is something you want to accomplish, the first step to take is believing in yourself and then it’s up to you to get to work.
Why this matters to you?
At CFJG we place no limitations on you. We have had the pleasure of watching members of all ages do things at our facility that they never thought possible. Put aside any notions of “I can’t” for whatever rason and get to work.
We’re here to open up doors, not close them…
