Thought Of The Day - Impediment

No prisons are as harsh as the ones we create for ourselves. We set standards we cannot live up to then chastise ourselves for our failure. We build unnecessary barriers and police them vigilantly. We are conscious of the way some impede our progress or impose their authority on us. Think less about this and more about the way we can escape our problem by altering an attitude or defying a self-imposed restriction. There may be many things beyond our control, but that's not the same as saying that we are powerless.
