All things become possible

During a brutal study at Harvard in the 1950s, Dr. Curt Richter placed rats in a pool of water to test how long they could tread water. On average they’d give up and sink after 15 minutes. But right before they gave up due to exhaustion, the researchers would pluck them out, dry them off, let them rest for a few minutes – and then put them back in for a second round.

In this second try – how long do you think they lasted? 🤔

Remember – they had just swum until failure only a few short minutes ago…How long do you think?

Another 15 minutes? 10 minutes? 5 minutes? No! 60 hours! 😳

That’s not an error! 60 hours of swimming.

The conclusion drawn was that since the rats believed that they would eventually be rescued, they could push their bodies way past what they previously thought impossible.

Can I leave you with this thought?: If hope can cause exhausted rats to swim for that long, what could a belief in yourself and your abilities, do for you?*Remember what you’re capable of. Remember why you’re here. Keep swimming.

Belief has the power to create the power or destroy what we believe to be true, will be reflected back to us as true as unconsciously, we as humans search for information to prove ourselves right this is why what we believe to be true is so important.

As if we believe we are capable of greatness, we can achieve great things if we believe the opposite, we can live very mediocre and challenging lives…Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that empowers them or one that can literally save their lives..

Knowing what your core beliefs are and being willing to look at any disempowering or limiting beliefs is key to reaching your potential.

Let’s not take our past failures so personally, but instead choose to remember that with enough hope and belief in ourselves.

All things become possible!

I mean, if a rat can go from swimming for 15 minutes to stay alive to 60 hours based on a little hope…Imagine what is possible for the human spirit when it’s willing to reach its full potential!!!If there was ever a time to dig deep and unleash the power of our human spirit that time is now 🙌🏻🔥

What is possible for you with enough hope and belief in yourself?
