Sifu, how do you teach your brain not to care about your well
being?  Also, can you tell when you're about to break through your
"limitations"? Or at least getting closer? And once you do that aren't
there always more limitations?



Thank you for any input.

You are always (unless you have lost all hope) going to care about your 'Well-being'.  The idea is that you will improve your 'well-being' by enduring life's little challenges.  I hate to use this saying... "Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger"... but it is true.


Limitations will always be present in someone's life.  What you need to endeavor towards is having very uncommon limitations.  What I mean is... work towards eliminating all common limitations and then you will be in a position to gain the admonition of your peers.  Maily because... you have a new set of goals that most people are not even close to considering.


"Limitations" are good.  It shows us that 'learning' is an essential part of being alive.  The moment I personally achieve everything I set-out to accomplish... I have a feeling THAT will be the end for me.  That is why I continue to strive beyond even my own limitations.  I want to live... not just exist!
