The Palace of Possibilities -The writing onour walls
We live in a Palace of Possibilities. It is an ever expanding structureand is filled with awesome rooms and annexes that are loaded withachievements and joy. These rooms are open to everyone, althoughmost of us only visit a few of them. It's not that we are barred fromany of the rooms. They are indeed our birthright. Rather, it's thatwe choose to dwell only in those rooms within which we arecomfortable. Somehow, we don't "belong" in those other, moreexpansive rooms. They are for others. They are for richer peopleand more privileged people and people with more talent than us. Westay within the familiar (our comfort zones) and don't venturebeyond the walls (limits) of the rooms we have chosen. Why? Becauseour cans and cannots are written on those walls and we obey thosedictates as though they were real. Our incomes reflect those limits.So does our self image. In fact, there is scarcely any part of ourmakeup that is not affected by what's written on those walls.

The words on our walls are metaphors for our self talk, of course.They represent the attitudes, opinions & beliefs that we haveaccumulated over the years. Many of them are hand-me-downs fromour parents, grandparents, teachers, coaches, religion, peers, books,TV and an endless list of other "authorities" in our lives. Uponinspection many of them are laughable. Nonetheless, they still seemto have a hold on our progress.We all have different words on our walls. That's why we appear tohave different limits. Your limits are different from mine becausethe "truths" written on your walls are different from the "truths"written on mine. However, they are not really "truths" at all. Theyare just the guidelines we have adopted for getting through life--AND--many of them are fictions. They are hand-me-down beliefsthat were written on our walls by others and we have been dutifullyobeying them ever since. This need not be.This brings us to a foundational concept upon which The Palace ofPossibilities is built. It is of critical importance and underlies justabout every idea we are going to explore in this series. It should betattooed on the insides of our eyelids so that we see it every timewe blink. Its truth is undeniable, yet it is so subtle that we tend toignore it. Here it is:
"We constantly consult the writing on our walls." 
That writing is our most prominent advisor and we consult it all daylong. It represents every experience we have ever had. It containsall of our "how to’s". It contains our cans & cant’s as well as ourshoulds & should nots. It contains our musts & must nots as well asour sense of fair play. It contains our version of proper behaviour aswell as what is right or wrong in this world. It contains our judgements, our successes and our failures. It's all there --everything we hold to be true -- written on our walls.
