Limiting Ourselves ... in school, work, relationships and our lives
The most important limiting factor in our life is our own thinking.
If you say to yourself, “I can never learn this” you will not put out the effort necessary to succeed and will quit at the first difficulty.
If you say to yourself, “Others will never like me” you will not try to learn the skills necessary to develop friendships since you will always be rejected.
Neither of these two statements (beliefs) is true but because you believe them to be true, you make them come true. These stories illustrate the “Limiting” thinking of the story characters and the problems they cause. They also illustrate what may be the negative reaction of others when you choose to reject limiting beliefs.
