The Sky Is Not The Limit

I don't know where I first heard the quote, "The sky is the limit". I know that its SUPPOSED to mean that nothing can stop you from reaching your dreams, but I personally don't like to use this saying because the sky is a very limited space. If I'm working hard against all odds, I don't want anybody telling me that the sky is the limit! If that's the case, just give me a box the size of a chili cheese fry container from the best coney island in Detroit (if you don't say Nicky D's or Grady's then you BETTER be thinking Universal Coney island on 94 & Chalmers) and tell me to park my car in it. Sounds crazy right? So don't sit there and tell me to dream big but cram it in a limited space!

My limit is beyond the sky. The sky is just where I sit so that I may catch a good view every now and then. The sky isn't the limit, your imagination is. I feel so strongly about the title of this post that the next time I hear a person say it, I may say to them, "Don't be a hater!" I don't want another person to tell me that the sky is the limit anymore because the way I feel about it, I've heard it and believed it so any times before that thats probably the reason why I am where I am in life and not further along, but we'll save that for another day. 

I'm not trying to preach but let me just say that we all know that one person who is ok with limiting their beliefs, limiting their faith, which in turn puts a limit on themselves and the possibilities of their outcome. People are this way and that is perfectly fine! If you are content and satisfied, then you have fulfilled your purpose. For some people the sky IS the limit and they are alright with that. but i'm not. For me, there is no limit. Me believing that the sky is the limit would ultimately limit my imagination- which is not the best option for me, a person who creates their whole life and career...

I say all this to say, challenge yourselves to dream without limits! When you dream a dream that you believe in, you become responsible in getting the work done. Create a process and get to work! I don't believe in impossible. Somethings may take a while, but all things are possible so long as you don't ignore what it is that you must do. When you dream, dream higher than the sky and deeper than the ocean. 

Touch The Sky

Here is the link of the song that resonates with this post. I was glad to be able to reach artist and drummer Wes and share some vibes. Super dope drummer, this particular song is off Got My Own Sound's first album, but truth is that they have a new album out and its fire. Wes gave me the ok to post a universal link to the song. If you're looking for some new heat, check out Wes Watkins web site https://www.gotmyownsound.com/bio One drummer to another, I respect that man because he WORKS. 

The drum is a circle. That being the case, I support all my drummers who are part of what I call " The Collective". The collective is basically all the musicians in the world who exist to create and share the message of Love. We believe in the importance of encouraging others. We are students and teachers of life. We believe music makes this world a better place and we dedicate our lives to that.

Don't limit yourself to the sky when there are galaxies among galaxies. Take the limits off!

Peace.
