How Do You Even Know What Is Possible?
I got asked on a post about getting abs the other day…
“How do you even know what is possible for you?”
It was one of those moments where you sit back and you go…
“Well huh!”
And my honest answer back was…
“I don’t think you can fully know what is possible until you try.”
I don’t think we can ever fully know how far we can go with something until we’ve tried.
And even then, we can’t fully predict the snowball that will happen as we continue to accumulate knowledge, make those small improvements and let TIME do its work.
I say this looking back at my own photos over the years, my own lifting logs…
When I was doing 2 pull ups, I would never have said I’d get 20 beautiful ones in a row.
When I was first trying to change my body type from the orange with toothpick limbs, I would never have told you I’d have abs I wanted to show off.
Heck if you asked me if I’d have half nakey photos I’d share of myself to social media while also filming videos every week, I would have laughed at you and thought you were crazy.
Because none of these things are what I necessarily envisioned even when working toward specific goals.
Because I don’t think we can fully predict the outcome of any journey.
We can just envision what we’d like, constantly work to improve and implement and adjust habits…and stay focused on tweaking based on how things are progressing.
But I do think we have to embrace that our ultimate goals, our results may not be exactly what we expected to start.
This doesn’t mean they’ll be worse or better.
But often they are different.
But we also have to remember we can’t hold ourselves back from trying just because we don’t know what is possible.
We have to remember that line of…
Everything seems impossible until we prove it possible.
So if you want to get better at something, don’t set a limit. See you goal as your starting point to shoot for.
See a goal not so much as the expectation but a vision to drive you.
And then set your expectations to learn and grow along the way.
When we do this, we find out more about ourselves.
We learn what are truly our priorities. We learn what matters to us.
And we improve and grow.
And often, no that end result isn’t fully what we expected. But often it can even be better. And it can lead to other progress, other wins.
But I think in life we have to realize that so much can’t be predicted.
So much has to be us taking a risk and seeing where things can go!
So if there is something you want to work toward…who cares if it is even truly possible?
Why not see how close you can get?
Here are 3 tips to help you get started today seeing what is possible…
