Alright, so it’s a given we are born with the capacity to do anything we truly want to do in life.

Ability is what we must acquire in order to reach different levels of our capacity.

That’s such a simple concept, but too many of let fear get in our way.

Let’s talk about the difference between the two and how to take action to improve our abilities.

See you inside!

Often we are held back in life because believe we are not capable reaching our dreams, but that’s flawed thinking.

In the movie A Million Milles Away (on Amazon Prime Video now), Jose Hernandez keeps getting rejected by NASA year after and year, and they his wife asks him “What they have that you don’t?”

She’s referring to other applicants that have been accepted into the space program.  He then starts to think about what he needs to improve on in order to learn new skills, develop his ABILITIES in order to stand a better change.

He always had the capacity... He needed to work in his abilities.

The same is true for you and for me… what abilities/skills do we need to work on in order to reach a higher capacity?

I’ve seen people struggle in some of these, just as an example:

If you’re tech challenged… take up computer science, google things, read books

Struggling with a language? Learning a second language that will help you get a better easier job, or help you learn new things faster is a great step to take.

Acquiring a new skill associated with your dream of… painting, making jewelry, making toys (toy by polina)

Developing new habits that move you towards your goals… health, fitness, etc.

Lastly, and most importantly…

Having a DESIRE is KEY… without desire we stay as we are and we will ither away.
