You’re so right about the importance of having a big goal. If we limit ourselves only to what as been done before, there is no hope of progress or achievement.

Someone said that the problem with our dreams is that they aren’t big enough. We have to go beyond what others say is possible and beyond what we’ve ever done ourselves. That’s where greatness lies.

Thanks for sharing Bannister’s story. It gives me needed encouragement in my weight loss and personal growth plans.

Great post! Some of the take-aways for me are:

1. Through failure we can redefine ourselves. I doubt many people know who won that Olympic race but many people know who broke the 4:00 minute mile barrier.

2. Having strong competitors makes us stronger. Knowing that others were close to achieving the same goal pushed Bannister to get there first.

3. We need goals that seem impossible to achieve. Each Individual must ultimately decide if we will do whatever it takes to succeed.

Things are created twice before they become reality. The first creation is mental creation. We think about it and imagine what success looks like. The visions we generate in our minds are the frist creation.

The second creation is physical creation. We make an action plan and work towards the goal everyday. We take actions to realize the second creation.

So if we change our thinking, we will change our results too. The story of Roger Bannister help us to understand this more: nothing is impossible. The truth is that we often limit ourselves.

Goal setting is important and it contains the two creations process.

When we convince ourselves that something can't be done, nothing new will be done. An openness towards difference allows people to imagine, create, and accomplish. Jason Simons last blog post..Stop! Time Alone, Time to Think, Time to Imagine

I definitely use limiting beliefs and when I become aware of them I either say "well that's dumb" and get over it or I see the deepseatedness of the belief and find a workaround so that I sneak up on the limit instead of crashing through it.
