Threshold
6:38 AM
A rubber band
stretched to its full elasticity will snap. A dam forced to its pressure
capacity will break. Cold water heated to the brink will boil. On the other
hand, hot water place in a cold storage will freeze. These are samples of
threshold. A universal law all of us are governed.
Sadly, we forget about this rule of threshold.
Most live our
lives helplessly. Most do not swim against the tide. Actually, we do not need
to swim against the tide and exert too much effort to win against the tide. We
can use a boat, a motor boat at that to go against the tide. If only we knew
that we must be out of the box so that we can carry the box!
We forget about the Rule
of Threshold – the rule that says everything has a limit. If we keep this into heart
then all problems are NOTHING.
Why?
Simple, there
will be no person that will fall on the side of the road. There will be no person
that will turn its back on the problem no matter how GARGANTUAN the problem is.
Heck, there may even no words like Quit, Give-up, Surrender and other related words
in the dictionary.
Still don’t
get it?
If we know
threshold, we will be obligated to keep on pushing forward and against
challenges, having a peace of mind that these challenges cannot break us
because it has limits. It has threshold!
Humans are
the most powerful creature in the universe. I am always reminded of the Vitruvian Male – the symbol in the Renaissance
Era, this is how powerful man is. The single creature that can hold
dominion over the world (I just hope responsibly and with respect to other
creatures of Earth).
Alas,
majority do not realize their true nature. I see them in the streets, in the
dark alleys of our decadent cities. I see them in clubs and other nightspots. I
event see them in great families. I see them bedraggled, their spirit sagging
evident by their lonely eyes and dropping shoulders. Sometimes, they even tried
to hide that lost spirit but their smiles betray them.
Such is the
disease of people that feel they are helpless against the problems and
challenges that beset them.

Schuller said, “Tough Times Never Last, Tough
People Do!”
This is proof
that THRESHOLD is true. This is proof that IMPOSSIBLE is nothing. This is proof
that YOU are destined to CLAIM YOUR DESTINY.
Just take UNRELENTING ACTION until YOUR
CHALLENGES explode to bits and pieces because it had reached its THRESHOLD.
