Today when I woke up, and logged into my computer, I felt a huge sense of achievement. In my sidebar, I noticed that I had managed to reach 51 subscribers to Blogtrepreneur. The breaking of the “50 barrier” even though I had not set that as a goal, seemed to be highely significant, and thus caused me to feel the emotion of achievement.
Along with this, I also realised that overnight I had gone from unranked to 60th on the BlogTopSites Business Rankings. Again I felt that I had managed to break a barrier.
However, I realised that heck, all people have barriers to break, even if some of those barriers are mental ones as well. Take me, a young entrepreneur for example. Even though I break some physical blocks with a new “Adsense high in a day” or “level of subscribers”, I also want to achieve other things in my daily life. For example, if Im playing tennis, I may get a new record of 4 aces in 1 game. Or mentally, I may achieve a sense of organization with my business or student life, that I hadn’t been previously able to achieve.
Whatever you do, whether it be entrepreneurship or taking some time to relax, breaking barriers is still extremely important to keep you feeling on top of the game and “in power” with your life. Even the smallest of improvements can help you feel good, but remember that managing to improve like this, and breaking enough hurdles can only be down to hard work in business, or concentration in exams.
Everyone can positively break barriers, but managing to benefit from these improvements everyday is a skill, and one that should be practised by a young entrepreneur if he is to constantly strive for success.

Cheers for the encouragement Matt.
We each have our own individual barriers, and I remember when I first broke 10, it was a great feeling.
Keep up the good work with your blog too!
