Testing your limits

As individuals we are tasked everyday to test our limits...

Test our limits of understanding

Test our limits of patience

Test our limts of preseverance

Test our limits of endurance

It's good to know your capabilities, to set goals and to reach for them,  to stretch yourself and achieve more than you thought possible.

But there are limits that we don't want to test, shouldn't test.

We all have beliefs and rules we set for ourselves and sometimes we are ok with bending those, living in the gray. Having an awareness of your value system, what you stand for, and making commitments to live by that is an imperative that we have to manage every day. Understanding our character, our absolute non-negotiables and living by them.

Because testing your limits is good ... except when its not.
