Mental Block

Every morning, I take my children to school. Education is a kind of way to break the limitation to reach better future. Is it true? In some reason, it is true but on the other hand, education builds mental blocks. Sometimes mental block is needed to make people focus on their goal but in other place, it can be a boomerang.

Our lives have been bordered by our experience and knowledge. It is the natural mental block for every human. Without a skill, a person will be blocked to repair a broken engine.

Breaking a mental block

There are some mental blocks that should be broken. Our limited mindset has tied us for years. It can be the dogma that we have earned since we were kids. Religious dogma that is not suitable for our recent life should be broken. Generated dogma from our ancestors that do not bring advance living should be broken.

There is a belief in an old society doing innovation will change habits and customs. Changing habits and customs are something prohibited and illegal. In the past, selling vegetables at night is a kind of activity that is not common. However, a man who is successful in his business opening vegetables stores at night proves that he has broken his mental block.

People in a city often go home late at night and go to work early in the morning. The common habits , people will shop vegetables in the morning but for busy workers, this activity is impossible. When these workers see a vegetable counter open at night, they will stop and shop.

This is a mental block that is shaped by our society. There are too many imagery border that have put us in prison. How can we get out from the imagery prison then? ....

I understand what you mean, mental blocks stop us from doing things not because we can't or not because there are any hindrances but just because it doesn't feel right or doesn't feel like it's something we should be doing.

That's something I've been fighting all my life and I keep fighting it to make sure as far as something is right and helpful the way it feels or is viewed by society would be of no concern of mine.
