Going Beyond Limitation

Do you remember those moments in life when you felt so alive, so fulfilled, and so happy for no particular reason?? It’s in those moments that I have realized how free we really are when we commit ourselves to that deep sense of connection to who we truly are. When I am connected to that feeling, I am more than anything you could bring me in life, more than any amount of money, more than any amazing place on earth, more than any love I could feel from another.

So in that moment I ask: Where, in my life, do I limit myself because of those finite things we sometimes identify with? Where do I hesitate because of the fear that something in my life may fall apart? How do I fail to follow that feeling of being who I love because of my perceived limitations?

If I can realise fulfillment in those moments because of nothing external, then why would I want to limit that expansive feeling by attempting to identify it with things outside myself: The house I want, the car I drive, the amount of money I have, my partner, or family?

The answer that comes to me is that I can never limit that feeling to anything. In truth I’m only seeking out those things in a search for that feeling.

Recently, I have become more content to appreciate what is, freer to live in the moment, expressing what I love. The more I have followed that feeling which moves through me, the more I have found my life to be unlimited by circumstances. It’s in those moments I feel that I am truly infinite.

I left behind a highly successful career in property. I left behind that business based solely on a feeling. I left behind those tangible things with no plan or understanding of what was next. I had no way of knowing what might happen. Facing those fears and uncertainties about what could happen was one of the most freeing moments of my life.

A few years later, I am more than okay. Not because of my circumstances but because I’m living. I’m living the life I love, doing what I love and following wherever that feeling may take me.

We all have different areas in our life where we have imprisoned ourselves. We all have rationalisations we tell ourselves that stop us from following our heart.  It’s not because of the story. It’s more about the power we have placed in those circumstances which keep us feeling trapped and stuck where we are, knowing it’s not where we want to be in life.

How often in life do you follow your feelings? How often do you notice that feeling you would love to follow and then, a moment later, limit it based on your circumstances?
