You may have seen that an Australian grandmother has just made a world record in the Cayman Islands, braving jellyfish, sharks and dangerous currents to swim for over 40 hours and 112 kilometres. Now most of us will never want to do this or couldn’t if we tried, but it got me thinking about the different limits we set ourselves in many aspects of our lives and how often or if we challenge them.

While asking for help, seeking clarity, questioning your beliefs or opening yourself to the many possibilities of the unknown may not be the physical equivalent of a shark-infested marathon swim, it can be just as terrifying and challenging to your logical and emotional intelligence given the potential impact it can have on your thinking and therefore your life.

In choosing the work that I do, I come into contact with people of all ages, cultural backgrounds and professions, but the thing that I respond to most is seeing people want to discover and learn – about themselves, about spirit, about topics they are or aren’t familiar with – especially when they know that their views could be greatly challenged in doing so.

Challenging your limits by trying something new can be very scary, whether it’s a new approach to resolve an old problem, a new career or a new way to meet a potential romantic partner. But doing the same thing over and over will result in the status quo even though it may be familiar and you already know what the outcome will be.

People get inspired, surprised and emotional when their intuition about a situation is either confirmed or totally challenged; but it can also be the most liberating thing by giving you a fresh perspective and new understanding from which you can choose to take action or not.

And, if you are not used to thinking that you can achieve whatever you want, or what you had dreamt about, but get told this is possible – and how it is possible – from Spirit as some people do when they dare to ask, then challenging your limits has to start with your mindset.

As French critic and novelist Andre Gide said,”Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore." Imagine if that Aussie grandmother had decided to reach her limit halfway to the island due to her thinking instead of all the way?

Challenge your limits; challenge your thinking; challenge your perspectives – and the rewards in your life could be huge if you dare.
