To Know Your Limitations

What does it mean to know your limitations? Should we ever nail ourselves down to a fixed capacity? Should we really try look for the boundaries of our selves and operate happily within them?

Do I feel more fulfilled knowing the width of myself and developing the depth?

Do I feel more fulfilled constantly stretching outward but never gaining any depth?

Do I feel more fulfilled trying to manage some balance of both?

Can I even make such a conscious decision or am I destined to follow whatever path I was programmed to walk by my history.

I find myself pausing for a moment and wondering if I should stop expanding and try to improve the quality of what I am, or if I should keep moving laterally. There is a lot to be said for both I suppose. Being one and not the other, I'm inclined to believe that method may be irrelevant to any sense of fulfillment.

To have nothing, is to want nothing, is to need nothing, is to be nothing, is to be satisfied....
