Push Your Limits, You Are Worthy, Stop Settling!

A pep talk/ reminder I had with myself that I am sharing w/the world..

I had about 4 long paragraphs of a beautiful backstory to my point in this blog post but I decided to save the backstory and skip to the point, which is, YOU, WE, are worthy!

My uncle let my test drive my dream car this past weekend. It was freakishly ironic how he ordered the very car ive spent months drooling over and plotting ownership of. 100% electric (ZERO gasoline), luxury, ZERO emissions. Everything a woman like me could ever dream of.

He let me test drive it and I didnt want to push its limits lol. I guess he was tired of my cautious driving and smacked his leg as he yelled, STEP ON IT!!! …and so I did, and that was all she wrote. I will admit, it felt so great to push it 80+, it was so freeing and smooth, like driving on a cloud. I believe, if he never told me to gas it, I wouldnt have pushed it past 60. Later it made me think…

I am like that car. I am luxury, I am beautiful, and I was made equipped with everything I need to take life by the reins, to “speed”, to handle curves. So why do I ever limit myself? Whenever I see people driving super fast cars sloooooowwwwwww I always think, whats the point? I know y’all think that too, its not just me.. mmhm. That car was MADE for speed and performance yet I didnt want push it, why? and when I did, it felt like that’s what I was supposed to be doing all along. It could handle it. It loved it. Imagine going through life and never pushing your luxury car (yourself) to your full capacity. How satisfied would you truly be at the end of it all?

The thing is, limits are comfy, and sometimes we cant even perceive that it gets better. Way better. That you will be safe out of your bubble. But why wouldnt you be? You were put here on this earth with all the proper equipment to handle every bump, curve, swerve, and enjoy the ride. It feels better. Its different. Its strange. Its new. But its, so YOU. A situation will having us driving our mercedes like its a 86′ toyota. Disservice to self? I think so. So PUSH YOUR LIMITS… we are ALL truly worthy and when we things get a little comfy, push. This can apply to anything (health, fitness, wellness, any personal challenge, growth, spirituality, fears.) I pushed my uncs car pretty far, yet even then, it had so much to give. And thats another thing, pushing your limits doesnt mean you have to be completely extreme. ie. pushing so far you arent being authentic to yourself. Pushing even a little out of our comfort zones is a HUGE accomplishment. Let your boundaries grow at your pace. but let them GROW.. and it may make you squirm a little in discomfort but the end result is always beautiful. Expansion!

WE ARE WORTHY! NEVER settle! Ever!

This was my limit trigger, have you had any? Or a time when you pushed your limits and had an amazing experience? I have many more stories but I want to hear yours. Or if you don’t push your limits, why not? What are you waiting for?

Happy Sunday!
