What "Push Past Paralysis" Really Means

When I'm talking about my motto "Push Past Paralysis" I seem to come across many people who are very unhappy, they hate their life and resent their circumstances. They think that they're going to get the answer they've been waiting for from me or even a miracle and when they don't, they get upset or feel that they were justified in believing there's no hope. 

That's just not what "Push Past Paralysis" means to me...

"Push Past Paralysis" really means to push yourself past your perceived limits. In life, there really are no limits other than the ones we put on ourselves or that we allow others to place upon us. We don't have to be in a different situation in order to reach our goals and potential in life and we don't have to shrink those goals down because we feel we are limited in some way. I'll never forget (even though it's only been about over a week) when I worked out with Paulie Calafiore and that was his first question. He wanted to know what I could do and what my limitations were. I told him we'd find out and just tell me what to do because he's the gym owning expert (PS never say that to your trainer in the gym if you don't want to die LMAO.) I meet everything in life that way. I have no preconceived notions of my potential. I'm well aware and proud of the fact that I haven't reached it and will continue to keep striving for it because there are no limits to anyone's potential. Even if I'm clearly struggling with something, I'll never say I can't do it and I try to encourage everyone I encounter to do the same.

"Push Past Paralysis" is breaking free from stagnation and comfort zones. It's getting out of your own head and finding your inner strength. It's realizing that you can do and be anything you want to be and YOU are the only thing standing or sitting in your way. When I say paralysis is imagined, I don't actually mean that you're going to suddenly feel a body part you haven't felt. I just mean that if you stop identifying with this limited version of yourself, you'll reach the potential you were meant to reach.

I always say that God doesn't make mistakes. It is never a mistake for someone to be born the way they are or even get their abilities seemingly taken away at one point in their life. A life lesson is never a punishment, limitation or obstacle. Life is ALWAYS a gift. It's just up to you to see it that way.
