It is only human to dream of rising above one's limitations?

Question

But what if we had the power to instantly acquire the qualities that we envy in others? Would it bring real fulfillment... or a hunger that can never be filled?

Answer 1

A hunger that would never be fulfilled - but we wouldn't even know that because we wouldn't know about that hunger and desire - about such hard work and dedication in order to achieve our dreams and goals -

Just like some people say that the memory of the best experiences in their life are perhaps more valuable than the actual experience (although you could not have the memory without the experience) - you can not appreciate things the same way if they are just given to you - earning these things is what fulfills a person.. those that just get them never know what it is like to exceed even your own expectation and dreams..

Answer 2

If we're always chasing after others' achievements then we will not be fullfilling our own unique talents. Some people are better off with their limitations for it gives them a focus and motivation.

Its like being in school and being asked to write an essay. If the essay topic is too specific or too difficult then it will be challenging but its just as challenging if not moreso, if the teacher says write an essay on anything.

Some people find it harder when there is too much choice but then again it would be quite something if we could pick and choose our abilities. However in the long run would that really be to our benefit? It seems a lot of what drives humans to astounding feats is trying to overcome limitations.

Answer 3

i exploit to have aims like that and it on the concern of a journey in genuine existence. you want to be a outgoing individual and seem for journey because the international isn't sufficiently huge. To have wings like a chook and fly is an exceedingly good feeling and frees you from regulations.

Answer 4

I guess it would just bring self satisfaction. Not for long though. Because with that self satisfaction might also come self confidence and we would just want more and we would be sure to get it. We'd want to achieve more, better and faster.

Answer 5

You can rise above anything unless you believe they are limitations.
What qualities would you have if you weren't limited?

Answer 6

yes humans are the only animal thihk about rising above.
the rest of the animals only think about where they are going to sh*t next or when they will lick their balls next. well i might think those questions also. but i can rise above it all.
