Belief that we can or cannot do something

Happiness for us is often associated with full palms, with having something, not giving up or failing. Still, there are things that obscure our daily presence, take away the joy of life, or prevent it from enjoying fully.

I do not know how you are, but it seems to me, first off all, it is a belief that we can or cannot do something. We limit ourselves without even taking the first step. Even without trying, we are convinced that one thing will succeed and another will not. I always think of the great inventors and thinkers of the world.

Just imagine what Leonard Da Vinci should have looked like in the context in which he lived… while everyone was pouring out the night pots through the  window to the street and treating illness with incantations, he was thinking about how to build an aircraft.

Beliefs are not always good, especially if they stop you from moving forward, pursuing your dreams, or searching for meaning in life.
