"Argue Your Limitations"

Read this quote and loved it. Looked for the source but no luck....I love good quotes. Then I get hooked on reading about the author. What was their character? What did they put into this life? Eleanor Roosevelt is my favorite. What a strong Christian woman. Her faith, family and the value she placed in living as a conscious citizen should empower us all. Argue my limitations? Something to focus on....

Time off this last week was nice. Spend time with the ones I love, reconnect with what's really important. Eat.... did I mention eat? ;) Not much training but then again, was good to take a break.... get back to it stronger.

I create alot of my limitations, in fact... most of them. Don't we all? I'm tired...too much work... not enough time in the day (& no more for me thank you! If 24 hours aren't enough..I have bigger problems!). I'm always searching for ways to 'get my arms' around things. If something isn't working, how can I get it to? It's the searching... the journey. I kind of like it. It's a great thing when we face our perceived limitations, argue them and push through. To live in faith (all the time), get beyond a personal tragedy, run that extra few minutes, choose to eat healthy and maintain a lifestyle that reflects the same. The more I focus on them...these limitations, the smaller they become. Funny how that pans out, huh?

Be bigger, be stronger....get beyond it.

Limitations.... what limitations????

What a great post! I listened to a book-on-tape once about the Roosevelts and it was mostly about her- what a strong woman.
When the self made limitations start getting me down I look at the prayer request list in the church bulliten and realize my problems are minor.
Haven't been to the Tin Shed yet. Went to the Ringside back when I was married and again after golfing with some guys from work at the Eastside one that's on a golf course. MMMMM food- the more I train, the more I want to eat!
