Free Yourself From Mental Slavery

What is holding you back - your job, your marriage, your lack of education, your lack of time or lack of money?

Let me suggest there is nothing outside of us that can hold us back against our will.

It is the excuses, the rationalizations and the justifications that keep us on the treadmill.

These exist only in our mind and only we can unchain our God-given potential.

There will always be a price to pay for reaching for that potential, but the alternative is bondage to mediocrity.

I'll unfurrow my brow here and end on a lighter note by citing some poignant pop songs:
"Free yourself from mental slavery. None but our self can free our mind." - Bob Marley, The Redemption Song

"So often times it happens, that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key." - The Eagles, Already Gone
