LIMITATIONS AND
POSSIBILITIES FOR
TRANSCENDENCE
Here are some limitations and possibilities for
transcendence:
- may not occur to everyone
- does not come at a specified period
- varies across all people
- may coincide with physical limitations of the body
- developing a positive outlook in life
- working towards reaching a goal
- learning from experience
POSSIBILITIES FOR
TRANSCENDENCE
It is also important to know that transcendence may
be applied to present worries by living in the
present. This means that life is lived from moment
to moment in a carefree and cheerful manner where
concerns for stress are reserved for the future, and
regrets or guilt feelings are kept in the past.
THE HUMAN BODY
IN IMPOSING
LIMITS AND
POSSIBILITIES
Examples
BODILY LIMITATIONS
- mental and emotional disorders (e.g. anxiety,
intellectual disability)

- disabilities (e.g. amputated leg, deafness)

- disease and illnesses (e.g. hypertension, cough)

- failures and experiences (e.g. failing a subject)


Examples
SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL LIMITATIONS
- socioeconomic status

- location of neighborhood (e.g. armed, disorganized, or


violent neighborhood)

- abusive relationships (e.g. emotional abuse)


- negative influences (e.g. drug use)
LIMITATIONS CAN
LEAD TO
POSSIBILITIES
- Have you noticed that you put yourself down
when you don’t think you can do something?

- Have you noticed that you catch yourself saying


that things are impossible?

-​ Have you noticed that there are certain


limitations that you have that you don’t think any
good can come out of?
OVERCOMING
LIMITATIONS
Bodily limits can be tested by trying on new
experiences and working on challenges with
increasing levels of difficulty. The human body, if
given enough exposure to any situation, can attain a
goal with efficiency.
Social and environmental limitations are more
difficult to overcome than bodily limitations because
they involve the influence of other people and the
external world. However, with a proper mindset,
clearly defined goals, and motivation to rise above
challenges, one may successfully overcome his or her
limitations.
RECOGNIZE AND
EVALUATE OWN
LIMITATIONS AND
POSSIBILITIES FOR
TRANSCENDENCE
SOME POINT TO REMEMBER WHEN GOING
BEYOND YOUR LIMITS

-you are connected to the external or eternal world


- challenges are learning opportunities
- your goal is more important than your fears
- think outside the box
- recognize that everyone has fears
