"The name of this post sounds like something you hear from every other person who has ever cared about or loved you. And here I am, telling the same thing over again. I can just hope you find patience enough to stick your bum infront of your screen and read this. Here goes...

Everyone has limits. But we never know our limits, until our skills have been put to test. How would you ever be able to understand the thrill of Para-gliding, unless you don’t dare to jump off the cliff? Life is short, by the time people understand this simple fact, that short life is over. So, never say: “This is all I can do”, unless you’ve tried to do it. Do you know that humans use only 10% of their brain? While much more you can do. You have the resources. You just need to find it and the first place to look into is within yourself.

Our skills double when we face danger. Then we see, hear, smell, and move faster. It shows that we are capable to act and do much more than we think. We are just too afraid at times. But what are we afraid of? Are we afraid, we may actually find our true strengths? Or is it, we just need to be pushed to find our true potential.
“What is the most universal human characteristic: fear or laziness?”

Some of us aren’t afraid. We just aren’t bothered. ‘So what’ are the two most dangerous accountable words. “So what, I’m weak? So what, I’m not using my abilities to my best?” These are the questions that can never be answered. But think about it a while; if everyone starts asking you the same questions, how will you feel? If all the great leaders fuss ‘So what, if the country is unhappy?’, if your grocer yells ‘So what, you’re hungry?’, if your garbage collector tells ‘So what, your home is dirty?’; pointing their fingers to you, how would you feel?
Replace that acidic “So what?” with the hopeful “What if?”
“What if you become someone great worth remembering?”
“What if you can make people proud of you?”

The thing that’s worse than quitting or failing is – being complacent. Believing you are weak and that’s all you are capable of. When you start saying, “This is the way I’m and there’s nothing I can do about it”, that is when you hit rock bottom. No one can help you in such a situation. Even the skills that you’ve mastered will be a waste with such an attitude. Believe in yourself, and only then you can expect others to believe in you.
Start to care. Even if no one else cares for you. The last person to give up on you should be yourself."
