We are more than what we think we are. There is an inner power within us that can drive us to do the unthinkable and achieve greatness. If you have ever been under intense pressure or faced imminent danger, you will witness how something suddenly rises up within you, urging you to take action to avert the danger or save yourself. This inherent power within us is our superpower that enables us to accomplish what may seem impossible.
I have come to realize that many of us never get to unlock the potential of this power within us because we let it remain dormant. I, myself, am a victim of this. The inspiration for this post came to me when I began reflecting on how I could overcome the barriers that hinder me from utilizing these superpowers that I possess.
While I began to meditate, the only thing I could think of was "what if." This simple phrase has become my approach to life. So I asked myself, considering the things I don't yet know, what if I dedicate more time to learning? Regarding my fears, what if I decide to fear them no more? And that dream that seems bigger than what I believe I can achieve, what if I decide that I'm going to pursue it regardless, not just testing if it works.
There are numerous factors that bring us down, cause us to worry, or hinder us from reaching our potential. When you delve deep within yourself, you realize that there is so much more you can accomplish than what you have done thus far. The only limitations to what you can achieve are those things you have allowed to hold you back. So what if you choose to confront those obstacles that weigh you down or impede your progress? What if you decide to.....
Imagine what we can do if we fear nothing. Imagine the possibilities if we are not afraid of anything. Can you imagine what we can become later if we choose to do the hard things in life ? imagine what we can do if we refuse to succumb to complacency? What if we step out of our comfort zones? what if you decide to quit that bad habit for good? What if we dare to try something new? What if we strive for that significant position that others believe to be hard to attain?
So the more I began to reflect and ponder using the simple phrase " what if", the more I reaslied that I'm only hindered because of the fact that I have not dared to stretch myself on most of the things that I'm yet to try but which I could possibly achieve. Having come across many people in life, I also realised that it's one problem they have, most us never stretch ourselves over things that our inner power could help us achieve.
Sometimes things like fear, laziness or the comfort we find in our certain zones are the enemies that constraints us. We move to tapping into our superpowers for exploits the moment we push beyond these containing forces or factors. The simple phrase "what if" can be a major turning point to causing you to do the impossible if you could also use it and reflect on where you find yourself in this life.
