The Five Laws of Personal Constraints

-
Law 1. We all have personal constraints.
Some are inconsequential and some are “hirable” (like employing a highly-efficient assistant to keep your disorganization from becoming fatal), but others are “owned constraints” such as self-confidence, self-control and maintaining effective relationships.
Law 2. You can’t rise above constraints that you don’t or won’t address.
The constraints set the ceiling.  We are sometimes blind to our constraints, but we also tend to cling to some obvious constraints that stare back at us in the mirror—a common one being stubbornness.
Law 3.  Our personal constraints play themselves out in every area of our lives.
They are with us 24/7—at work, at home, and anywhere in between.
Law 4.  Personal constraints are role-specific.
Behaviors leak into every compartment of our lives, but they become constraints only when they get in the way of attaining specific goals.  For example, high aggression can be beneficial in competitive sports but disastrous in social interaction.
Law 5.  Those with the least personal constraints…WIN!
It’s not necessarily the most talented or the hardest working people who win but rather those who remove their most impacting constraints. The next step is to diagnose your constraints and then design a plan to overcome them. 
Dropping the weights will make anyone a better swimmer.  You will quickly find that the air is easier to breathe when you’re on top of the water.  We’ll see you there.

You deserve to live your dreams. Recognizing this is the hardest and most necessary step. Most of us think that only other people get to live their dreams. Only other people are lucky enough, not us.
