What is holding us back?

What would happen if you rode your car with the brakes on? You’d never get full speed because the brakes would offer resistance. Your car would overheat and breakdown. If it didn’t break down , the resistance would strain the engine.

To get to your destination, you would have to make one of the two choices:
1)You would either press the accelerator and rick damage ,or
2) or release the car to go faster.

This analogy is a good parallel to life because many of us go through life with our emotional brakes on. What are the brakes ? They are the factors that prevent you from achieving success - fear , procrastination, lack of pride< and so forth. The way to release your your emotional brakes is by building a positive attitude and high self-esteem and by accepting responsibility.
