No matter how long we live there will always be something new to be seen, heard or experienced.
Each and every day comes with promise and opportunity. There are so many things that we have never thought or felt…so much left unexplored.
The problem is that our psychological self all too often overrules our physical self. We fail to try new things because we fear the unknown.
But while our bodies may have limitations, our minds have no such boundaries.
All too often it’s what is happening inside our heads that limits what can happen inside and through our bodies.
If we believe something to be impossible then it will always remain impossible but our imaginings and our thoughts are limitless.
The body can only take us so far. The mind can take us anywhere. When head and heart are working in unison we can be stronger, bolder and – above all else – happier.
There is power in positive thinking. There is comfort to be gained from knowing and loving the person we understand ourselves to be.
We can choose to regret the past. We can choose to fear the future. Or we can reject both and choose to live in the day, in the moment.
And we can choose to accept or reject the ever-present opportunities to learn more and to be more.
Life is very much what we make of it.
