Your Limiting Factors

Certain incidents in life force us to reflect on the subtle yet hidden aspects of life. Last week i had been to a rock concert with a friend. Amazing how most people forget themselves and the world at one. The band was phenomenal........people were crazy about the music. My friend seemed inspired by the band. "Wish i was 1 of them?" he sighed. "So, what's stopping you?" i exclaimed. He said that he lacked the X-factor, he couldn't play the guitar and his family wanted him to be a Chartered Accountant. THESE WERE HIS LIMITING FACTORS. What're yours?

Everyone gets the same amount of time to achieve greatness : 1 lifetime. Some manage to achieve greatness, some don't. This question is to all who seeks greatness, "What's stopping you from achieving greatness? What's your limiting factor?"Make a list of your limiting factors and knock hem out of your life one by one.

Here's a big idea: The path that will deviate you most from your path of greatness the easiest one. Most of us choose to follow the path of greatness which apparently is one of the most difficult ones in the desert of time but one that leads to the oasis with beautiful palm trees, greenery , sweet natural, pure water and colorful tropical birds.

It's easy to steal.......It's easy to jam a punch on the face of some1......It's easy to dupe some1....... It's what most common men do....... That's what most common men do....... That's what is their limiting factor..... That's what distinguishes them from great men. Great men are different .... They do not follow popular trends....... they do not take popular decisions...... They take the right decisions.

The path to greatness which may appear Topsy and turvy is guaranteed to appear straighter once you identify your limiting factor, once you identify what distinguishes you from great men.
