A buddy of mine, Jerry Howe, once said to me something along the lines that if I could do something I said I could do, and did not do it, then that amounts to the same thing as not being able to do it. Now, that was not meant literally, but rather philosophically.
So, we are not talking about martial artists who can kill with one blow not having that ability because they don’t kill with one blow. No, we are talking about the self imposed limitations of the human spirit, the downer attitudes that keep us from doing, whatever, whatever, we want.
The kind of thinking that states, I would if I could but I can’t, when in reality we could but we just don’t.
See, Do It Now.
