Some people just aren’t happy unless they’re pushing the limits. They just aren’t satisfied until they conquer the next challenge. The first example that came to mind was the backflip on a motorcycle. At first they said it couldn’t be done.

Then someone did it.

Of course that made the next challenge obvious. The double backflip. And if my memory serves me right, it might not because I’m over 40 now, I believe it was Travis Pastrana that conquered the challenge first. Then it was time to perform a front flip. And the challenges and tricks continue to get bigger and better.

Now I know not everyone can go out and do what these people pull off in this video. And I know not everyone wants to. But I also know there’s someone out there in this world that you watch and/or admire and wonder “how can my life be like theirs… what are they doing that I’m not… why can’t I live a lifestyle like they do?”

You can.

You just have to step out of your comfort zone and take that chance that you haven’t been willing to take yet. You, and only you, are the one that’s holding yourself back.

Watch this video. These people all took incredible risks that, if something goes wrong, the outcome is going to be real bad. Chances are, whatever the risk or challenge is that you have been unwilling to take thus far, the outcome isn’t going to be as devastating as you think it might be.

Know your limits, but push them to the edge.
