We are often stuck in our long shadows, our cobwebs, a variety of constraints both internal and external and what we think are limitations. We get used to these shadows and cobwebs as they become an integral part of us. Or at least we think that they are.

Yes, there are a ton of external constraints and things that stop us. But most importantly, the predominant reasons for us not being who we want to be are just us. And with the barriers that we self make for ourselves. And the stories that we tell ourselves.

So break free of those shadows. Clean up your cobwebs. Find answers to your constraints and limitations. And sometimes even turn some of these constraints around and put them to your advantage. If you step back from the problems far enough, long enough, and look hard enough, there are always options, workarounds, and enablers that help you break free.

If you are still not able to step out of those shadows, it is just you that is mostly the problem. And most probably no one else.
