Pilots who flew in the earlier days of aviation would encounter great amounts of turbulence while flying at excessive speeds. The invisible "Devils Wall" had already killed several other pilots before 24 year old Chuck Yeager pushed past the wall. The young pilot ignored the great destructive forces beating away at his craft and slammed the throttle forward! He literally punched his way through the previously impenetrable barrier.
Afterwards he reported on the other side, that the flight returned to its routine smoothness.
Points to Ponder
What invisible barriers are pushing against your dream, vision, plan or purpose? Will you allow it to stop you dead in your tracks? Will you let it kill your dream, demolish your plans? Murder your purpose? or will you push past the borders of normalcy and enter into notable success?
Put it in Action
1. Take some time today and think back to something you may have encountered in your business or organzation that seem impossible to you. 2. Write it down. 3.Then beside each item write. "We can and will do this" next to it. 4. Begin to visualize yourself accomplishing those things. 5. Start speaking to others about how you will meet your goal. 6. Find others who have already done what you are looking to accomplish and begin to surround yourself with people who are positive. 7. Remove negative thinking and negative people from around you. 8. Commit to do what is necessary everyday to see this goal accomplished.
