We are born Perfect....
Do you remember your blurry infant past.. how passionate you were in doing things, how original your thoughts were... how you didn't depend on a particular outcome to be happy.. how you weren't afraid to cry and show your vulnerability, how you gave more importance to your feelings and imaginations rather than looks and judgements... how expressive you were, how definite you were regarding the dreams you were planning in your mind....
Your character or self is basically what you have experienced in the past and not necessarily what you had perceived to become. What's natural to you is what kind of experiences you have had on regular intervals. Let's take an example:
A child loves talking out loud, she likes to explain things, she likes to speak with her friends a lot, she loves when the class teacher asks her to read in-front of the class.... but let's assume that her parents are really conservative and believe in keeping the child grounded. They stop her from speaking out loudly, they get angry on her if she speaks a lot when guests arrive, her class teacher is strict and punishes her every time she speaks to her friends during the class.. now her natural self is being challenged by the world.. she has to adapt, hence her subconscious mind creates an delusional truth that talking too much isn't a good thing. She backslides herself into a quiet and reserved girl, and when she sees some one loud and expressive she'll think, how can that person be so outgoing and get's fascinated by the idea.. as if it is alien to her personality.
We limit our ambitions to the extent of our own self judging, we always say.. no that's not me.. that's not my natural self, but actually that is just a fear or laziness speaking out of you. Based on your experiences you create a guide in your mind: do's and don'ts, possible vs impossible..
We are limitless in our capabilities and our choice of building these horizons makes us unique.Explore it.. be mindful..learn how to unlearn things that are limiting you.
Cheers.
