Take off the boundaries
Who created those boundaries?
How often have you planned on doing something only for you to get to the point where you finally gave up and said: "no it can't be done"? It's a common phenomenon. You ain't alone in this. All of us at some point in our lives have faced a similar scenario.
The outcome of life doesn't always turn up as expected. We are often faced with circumstances contrary to our expectations. And sometimes these prevailing circumstances seem to overwhelm us and make us create artificial boundaries on how far we can go in life.
However, the good news is this, you can take off those boundaries. Most people are where they are in life because they created boundaries for themselves. Some endure hardships and poverty because they believe they can never be rich, so they don't try new things that might drag them above their present status. Some continue lying on a sick bed because they believe they'll not survive the sickness.
Like I've always said, life is a battlefield and only the brave, courageous and positive minded people can emerge victorious.
Don't allow fear, shyness or inferiority complex limit you. You are stronger and better than you can ever imagine.
Even if you failed at the first attempt, don't quit, keep trying until you get what you want. Remember, quitters don't win and winners don't quit.
Can I you sincerely answer this question;
How would you know if you could have succeeded if you never gave it a trial?
Oh! please don't bother giving me your answer, but passionately ask yourself this question each time you try to write off something you never gave your best.
Don't try to figure out everything before you take your first step. Take that leap of faith and things will get clearer as you progress. This reminds me of what happened when I started blogging on steemit.
When I joined this network, I was reluctant to start writing. I said to myself "this is a worldwide social media that has lots of highly educated people so I don't have to embarrass myself with low-quality posts". I wanted to back off and remain in my comfort zone where no one checks the quality of posts I make (facebook). On a second thought, I decided to give it a trial..... Of course, I have nothing to regret trying but would have missed a lot if I never did.... Funny enough, if I didn't try, I would not have known I missed a life-changing opportunity. Today, I'm not a perfect writer, but I have improved and still in the process of developing my writing skills and my entire life.
I can bring myself together to write a post today because I have decided not to live by the standard sicknesses want to confine me to.
You never can tell how many opportunities you have missed because you never gave it a trial.
Take off the self-created boundaries and you'll realize the mountains are not as high as you presumed and the valleys are not as deep as you thought.
@ogoowinner is always a winner and will never live her life in accordance with circumstances that want to keep her down. I will come out stronger and victorious. The sky is not my limit, it is a springboard to greater heights.
I believe in God, I believe in prayers and I believe in miracles. Please I need your prayers.

Well people have different terms for the word boundaries but which ever you choose to call them either challenges or delays but what matters is the mindset towards it. A strong woman once said that suffering is not bad but it all depends on the attitude towards it.
Delays does not mean something is not coming but there might be a lesson that nature wants you to learn before the big show so that you will be able to hand it for a long time.
I love strong people and that is what the world needs. It needs people who do not complain at boundaries, obstacles, delays or challenges.
You might be held down for a while so that you would be able to try what you have not tried before, who says tryibg is bad, am glad we already know the answer. But all in all... I encourage that we all should always accept what ever it is life places on our table and look for ways to turn it around into something great.
Stay strong... stay inspired.
Very succinct post @ogoowinner.
Limitations and boundaries are usually mindsets we create due to fear of the unknown.
A wise person once said...
The future is unknown to us, and this can be scary to deal with, because we are inhibited by the "should i, could i, would i" conundrum. Only the bravehearts and the determined often fight to achieve their goals in life, regardless of what the unknown future holds.
Thanks alot for sharing this piece @ogoowinner. A lot of us need motivational posts like this to remind us that the world is for the taking. And that despite the obstacles we might face, regardless of the low points, the disappointments and the failures, once we pick ourselves up and resolve within us, then NOTHING CAN STOP US from fulfilling our dreams.
This is an awesome comment. @rickie thanks for stopping by.
Thanks @ogoowinner. I really loved the post.....it almost felt like you were talking to me. Thanks for sharing.
We only create boundaries when there is non, the write-up is quite inspiring, faith is what we actually need to move forward expecting nothing but hoping it will all turn out alright. That's me most times, you just have to take that first step and believe everything would turn out good after all you have done the needed. Thanks once again for this right up and I followed hoping to get much more like this
Thank you for this. I hope my subsequent posts won't disappoint.
I doubt that
Having a positive mindset always is the main key in setting boundaries aside, because you are what you think all day long. If you have nothing but negative thoughts going through your ahead, then that’s what you are going to get, so try shifting to a more positive outlook in life. You will be surprised to see that whatever you wished for will start to manifest itself around you. Thanks for sharing @ogoowinner
I just a learnt more from this comment. Thank you for this..
You are welcome!
Boundaries are created by us and could also be broken by us. Just like hate against fellow men were not something we were born with. It is something we learned or were told as we grow up that made us hate some particular set of people due to color, sex, tribe or race. As they are learned, so also can they be unlearned. We can unlearn and break the barriers of our boundaries, if and only if, we want to be free to achieve more. Great write-up. Gracias.
Thank you for reading
You are most welcome.
time to jump off the boundaries and make new one to keep us going and challenge ourself :)
Boundaries like limitations, nothing else...
That deep feeling that falls on man, making one stick to rules like... No one can do that... People like you can't do it... No one has done it.... People from where you come from don't do it, so you can't...
Men focus on minor rules and we tend to forget major rules like 'The rules of possibility' (Everything can be done)
I know I am not much of a great writer but anytime I am asked, WHAT CAN YOU WRITE ON. i look up with a smile, if the person was in my face, or face my phone with the dim lit masking out the outline of my face and I would type
'I can write anything as long as I can think about it'
And that's true.. Once a thing a something that s mentally comprehensible, then it's aflot in the realm of reality and actuality.
This post is awesome sister.
I am not mistaken to have picked you as a role model on steemit... Thanks for your amazing posts they inspire me.
The truth if the matter is that we always know the right thing to do but the hard part is doing it. There are no boundaries in existence except for the ones we created within our mind.
Thank you ma'am @ogoowinner
