Are you ready to look beyond what you currently can think of or know how to do?
“Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless.” – Jamie Paolinetti
A woman at a seminar I was at last weekend stood up and shared an “aha” moment that I thought was brilliant so of course I want to share it with you! She said, “I am realizing the importance of focusing more on possibilities rather than my capabilities.” The crowd made a collective “ooohhhh” as we all realized the powerful distinction she made.
How many times have you wanted something but you’ve used the excuse of “I don’t know how” or “I can’t do that” stop you from going after it?
We limit ourselves by allowing our current capabilities to overrule our creativity! Our capabilities continue to expand each day as we experience and learn more. So if you are allowing what you are capable of today to determine what you could create in the future, can you see how short-sighted that is?
The most amazing creators see possibility. Genius and innovation comes from a place of expansion, not constriction. It’s been said that Thomas Edison tried over 10,000 times before he was able to make a light bulb work because he continued to focus on what could be possible rather than what he was currently capable of.
I invite you to give up seeing through the limited lens of your current capabilities. Allow your mind to swim in a beautiful and vast sea of possibility. Stop drowning your dreams by only paying attention to what you have done or can do right now. Trust the energetic power of focusing on possibility and soon you will see that the right teachers, tools, and circumstances you need to be capable of creating it will show up.
Relax and celebrate this amazing possibility:
You are more powerful and capable than you think. @ChristinHassler (Click to Tweet!)
Whatever your “it” is, know that you CAN do it, you CAN have it, and you CAN be it. It’s all possible – you just have to open your mind and heart to it.
Fondly,
Christine
P.S. I have a new podcast where I coach people LIVE on the air. Head over to Over it and On With It and listen in for inspiration and action steps.
Christine Hassler has broken down the complex and overwhelming experience of recovering from disappointment into a step-by-step treatment plan in her new book Expectation Hangover. This book reveals the formula for how to process disappointment on the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual levels to immediately ease suffering. Instead of wallowing in regret, self-recrimination, or anger, we can see these experiences as catalysts for profound transformation and doorways that open to possibility. You can find more info on her website, and follow her on Twitter and FB.
