This freestyle writing isn't about a book but a quote that somebody said on a video i was watching at work the other day.
"we limit ourselves to only do the minimum, when you achieve the maximum you then will start your life"
I understand this may be a bit confusing when you don't really know what he is talking about, but I work at the outdoor program and I put a rock climbing video in to fill noise in the background because it was really slow in there the other day. This video had to do with exploring different parts of the earth to find rock-climbing spots.
This quote came into play when he was talking about how he loves life because he pushes his limits. I think he was implying that nobody lives until they find out what they are truly capable of. This is something I am a strong believer in. I really don’t like the word I can’t. There is something that makes me cringe when I hear that.
I feel that this is applied in everyday life. This can apply not only in the outside world but with inside things such as reading. If you read the same kind of books you tend to become familiar with a one set mind and don’t become well rounded in other areas. This can also be a crucial personal skill.
I think more people should push their limits and really find out who they are. I really like this quote because it’s something that can really motivate a person, well me at least!!

Hi, Dustin. I like this quote, too. I find when I do the minimum, I'm just going through the motions. When I give something my all, I may not do it fully well, but I'm passionate about it. I also learn that I'm stronger than I thought. Nancy
