Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of pushing oneself beyond their perceived limits in order to achieve greatness. It suggests that unless a person takes on tasks that seem impossible or overwhelming at first, they will never reach their full potential or accomplish everything they are capable of. By embracing challenges and stepping out of their comfort zone, individuals are encouraged to tap into their true abilities and push the boundaries of what they thought possible. Only by taking on more than they think they can handle can they truly unleash their full potential and achieve remarkable things.
