Limiting thoughts
Today I ran 5KM. And altough it’s nothing special, plenty of people run greater distances each day for me it was a first. My time was actually worse than expected but it didn’t matter, I had proven my past self wrong. For years I was sure I couldn’t run at all, anything above a 100M was simply impossible. But about 7 weeks ago something changed and I just tried running for half a minute. And I went on from there. I am sure I won’t run really fast and I probably won’t do anything beyond 10KM but it did show me I can be my own worst enemy, when it comes to my mental capabilities I have always had a growth mindset but it turned out it didn’t extend beyond. Thoughts can change. Some limits are hard but don’t let those stop you from trying, there’s usually enough room between where you are and the actual limit.
