Hey.
For the past weeks, at the end of the day in the back of my head I have a thought telling me I need to blog. But I never get the motivation because I couldn’t find a topic to talk about, but I just thought of one while I was on the computer…So I thought I might as well drop by, so prepare to run away when you read this
Have you ever pushed youreself past you’re limit? Like, for you’re strength limit, example: you have a certain purpose to hold or carry something, and yet you know that you can’t carry on much longer; but somehow, you’re able to push past you’re limit and go 110%?
Going past you’re limit is pretty much only for physical tasks, not many mental tasks are being pushed past you’re limit, but it’s possible. Me, being a lover to run for fun and be free, my running comes in handy. Say, when I’m late for a class or I need to get to the bus, I begin to run faster than usual.
For example, about three weeks ago I had missed the bus because I had forgotten to pack one of my school stuff that I needed. The bus was set to leave in about 2 minutes; didn’t have much time.
As I ran back into my school building, I was spirnting up the stairs, swirling my combination lock open, taking out my binder and shoving it into my backpack, as I would sprint down the stairs as fast as I could, with about a 3 lb backpack on my back, full of school binders and homework.
I pushed open the front doors of my school building, only to see the busses were out of the bus lane and stopped at a red-light, just exiting my school. I sprinted across the parking lot and towards the front of the school, on to the lawn and I was right across the street from my bus, staring at my bus driver.
She wouldn’t let me on the bus, but I guess it was because it was some rule, of course, so it wasn’t entirely the bus driver’s fault. Even though I was pissed, I watched, standing there on the lawn, as the red light turned green, and the busses passed the red light, people looking at me and waving, shouting my name.
Even though I had gone 110% with that rush of adrenaline pumping through me, I had missed the bus, but had caught up with it. Weird, huh? Maybe I missed the bus, but I realized after that…My legs didn’t feel a bit tired with this 3 lb backpack on my back, using 110% and going past my limit of usual speed running, I could still stand and wasn’t tired a bit at all, and I wasn’t even out of breath.
But I realized, that when you’re going 110%, you feel like a god, able to have as much strength as you want to be able to fulfill you’re task. I felt like I had wings on my back when I had ran through those halls and out the doors, sprinting to the lawns of my school.
So, I’ve learned to try not to give up and go past my limits in order to complete the task that I face. What I’m saying is, don’t give up, even if you didn’t catch that bus; you were still able to catch up with it.
Well, well, I guess I’m done here for another 2 months or so. I might post back in January, December, or June…Whatever, I guess. Nobody even reads my posts anymore, so there’s really no motivation at all…But, hey, if you’re reading this, thanks, and Happy Halloween, and just incase I miss these holidays: Happy Thanksgiving, Happy Hannukah, Merry Chrismas (forgot how to spell it at the moment), and Happy New Year! (Or any other holidays that are in other countries.)
