One of the most pervasive obstacles we face in transcending limitation is in our perception of possibility and potential.
A few weeks ago, when my good friend Kelly sent me this movie, I knew I HAD to share it...watch it and then read on...to choose a new reality of potential and possibility and move beyond perceptual impossibility.
Giving up was never an option for this guy...
Limitation is a State of Mind - State of Mind is a CHOICE
We are only as limited as we think - as we choose to think. Things are only impossible until they aren't (in your mind).
What is it that enables some people, who, even against all odds, to defy them? Over and over again, it is mindset and commitment. Their mindset (at the conscious and subconscious levels) is not mired by stories of impossibility. Giving up is not a choice (at least not for more than a few minutes). Limitation and misfortune is not their identity. Attitude and perception fuels their behavior (their choices) as opposed to rules their lack of it.
Do You Argue for Your "Limitations?"
We can argue for our limitations or we can commit to transcending the ideas and beliefs that have created the idea of limitation.
The challenge is often that we don't engage our subconscious mind in facilitating the inner changes that are needed to facilitate conscious changes. And, the subconscious mind will fight, tooth and nail, to maintain the familiar, even when the familiar is undesired.
This is why many years ago, I became trained as a Hypnotherapist. Traditional coaching didn't address the re-patterning that needed to happen at the subconscious level - the storehouse for perceptions, memories, imagination, creativity, and the main dictator of what is able to be willed at the conscious level.
Change Your Subconscious Mind - Change Your Reality
Today, the big difference between clients (and my own examples of transcendence) who transcend limitation is their commitment and consistent work at the level of mindset.
"What the mind perceives and the heart believes, the body receives."
Perception and what you have faith in - what you EXPECT - is a powerfully creative force in your life. Do you have more faith that things will stay the same or get worse, or more faith in the your dream or goal manifesting in your physical reality?
Maybe you would rather wait for the invention of your "easy button." Or, you can begin the journey of shifting at the subconscious level to facilitate conscious change.
You Possess the Power of Choice
You possess the power to choose the time to regularly meditate, use hypnosis audios, and take responsibility for your own shift when needed. You can choose to become conscious of the fact that your thoughts, the language you use, and the conversations you have (with self and others) are HIGHLY creative. You can shift your language and the focus of your thoughts and attention moment to moment. You can also stop looking for more evidence as to "why you can't, or "why you are the way you are."
Move from Burden to Blessing
Step one is finding some way to see the gifts in what you have previously perceived as burdens. You can learn to love and appreciate what is (this is really important) and stop trying to facilitate change by hating, getting rid of, or not wanting, what it is. LOVE is the bridge to all healing. You can't fully heal anything absent of love - not your body, your relationships, your finances, your past.
Don't Give Up - Shift Your Identity
It can take time. Don't give up. Make a choice. Demonstrate your decision and be willing to deconstruct both your current identity and the current focus of your faith. Cultivate a new reality in your mind first. You must be willing to shift your sense of identity - how you have defined yourself in the past (or up until now) is not how you NEED to define yourself in order to move from point "A" to point "D", "X" or "Z."
Likewise, the "who you are today" is not the person you will be when your dreams come into reality. Accepting this NOW and identifying what needs to change within you, in order to change what is "out there," is a good place to start.
Detach From The Story - Unfetter Your Desires and Unleash the Dream
Give thought to the identity of limitation you fight to maintain - they ways you define yourself (I"m the type of person who...I'm the type of person who doesn't, can't, will never..." dictate what you are able to imagine and what you see as your choices.
Day by day you can detach from the old story of who you thought yourself to be. Be willing to let go of the need to tell your story from the mind and voice of your victim and begin to invite your inner hero to re-write the story of the past and take over in writing the manuscript of your future reality.

A Recent Excavation
For me, I can tell you that the person (and my accompanying mindset and story) I was when I decided to heal from Lupus (in the Fall of 1996), was not the same person who healed (in April of 1997). I can look over the last decade and see how each big leap required a shift in identity and what I perceived was possible or impossible.
Just recently, I excavated another victim story - one where I had allowed myself to harbor resentment and all sorts of reasons and excuses as to why "I couldn't."
I was talking a "good game" in my mind, but my behaviors and thoughts did not scream COMMITMENT! My attitude was "I can't, I'll never," and honestly, I was lingering in DESIRE. I started using my own hypnosis audios (grab them at www.powerofmyway.com/shareabundance.html ) and the internal changes were evidenced in my heightened sense of possibility, motivation, and several creative bursts that have already been implemented.
About a month ago, my husband and I made a DECISION. Yesterday we moved into DEMONSTRATION. Upfront, we also chose to release any attachment to outcome. We agree that the Universe responds to demonstrations of faith more than anthing else. We finally, after a year of dreaming about it, hosted our first (non-Lakota oriented) spiritual gathering in our home (since moving to Florida).
As with most ministries, we started where we are and will allow emergence to guide our next steps - and the unfolding of Divine perfection. The point is we are demonstrating our desire, in alignment with our decision to once again minister together. It felt great and the people who attended loved it and are adding their own fuel and vision to the dream now. We are not alone and we are not allowing perceived limitation to lead us any longer.
Release Your Reasons and Excuses
"I don't have time," "I've tried it before, it didn't work," "It's too late," "I can't," and a focus on what others are doing and not doing, are some of the most common change stoppers I hear. I remember saying (in response to these statements) to one of my clients, "OK, so why don't we just begin to help you accept that nothing will change? Just give up and stop focusing on what you believe is impossible anyway."
Suddenly, the focus of their fight changed. They got mad. "How can you say that?" "Well, you've made the decision, I'm just agreeing to support it." Maybe it was a little reverse psychology, but suddenly, the energy they funneled into justifying their perception of impossibility shifted.
Anger moved them into motion and a new trajectory was set - one that moved them towards a higher potential and possibility. Motion moved them towards the creation of a reality that was possible all the while. They began to use the hypnosis audios, worked with me one-on-one in coaching and healing, and today, they consider themselves a walking miracle.
Cultivate Resiliency
A few days ago, I wrote an article called Eight Components for Cultivating a Resilient Response and Expanding Potential (click on this link to read it).
A very small portion of our community actually took the time to read it. Those that did wrote to me and said they printed it out - many of them posting it on the wall they face during their work day.
In looking at your own dreams - the desires of your Soul that are asking to emerge in the reality of your human existence and experience - give thought to what "impossibilities" are flavoring your thoughts and behaviors.
What does it take to move beyond the perception of impossibility?
1. A Clear Focus
2. Moving from Desire, to Decision, to Demonstration
3. Commitment
4. Changing at the subconscious level
5. Cultivating an Attitude of "I can and I will"
6. Aligned, Consistent Efforts
7. Practice, practice, practice (never give up)
8. Resiliency (you gotta get back on the bike)
9. Taking yourself to the next level - again, and again
10. Releasing attachment to outcome and focusing on effort and attitude ONLY!
If you are truly ready for BIG internal change, so you can move towards an external SHIFT in your physical reality, go visit http://powerofmyway.com/shareabundance.html and take advantage of this amazing set of 29+ hypnosis and healing audios.
We've never shared them in this way and will only do so for a limited time. I figure the people who are motivated and ready will take advantage of them right away...
Why Now?
I wanted to help folks move beyond the excuses of time and money. Make them as accessible as possible, give you the tools you need. The rest is up to you! Go take a look...try a few...read and listen to some of the real life stories of people who used these audios consistently, and choose to engage in a deeper part of your self - for the positive changes you so desire.
Maybe true enlightenment is really just about knowing what your resources are and using them. Maybe true success is simply a byproduct of mindset. And, maybe, just maybe, you are in a lot more control than you realize.
Take control. Take the Wheel. Take ONE STEP...http://powerofmyway.com/shareabundance.html
