It’s A New Year And Time To Un-Limit Yourself
It’s a new year and it is time to Un-Limit yourself. What does that mean? Permit me to share a little story with you first.
It was December 2005, and I was ready to begin my blog. I’m now into my 18th year.
I knew it was something I had to do and I was ready to share all that I had learned with the world. The medium of blogging seemed like the best way to go.
I was initially looking for the URL ‘ThePowerOfChoice’ but sadly it wasn’t available. I was so excited and ready to bare my soul to the world, but I’d hit my first barrier.
So I tried my best to think of alternative names and it was only after a discussion with my best friend did the website name ‘UnlimitedChoice’ come about.
I didn’t know at the time why that name resonated but it did. So, without hesitation, I purchased that URL and it has stuck with me ever since.
I won’t lie, it has crossed my mind, many times over the last 16 years, to rebrand and change the name to something more catchy. However, some force would not let me. It has stayed with me for all this time, and I’m so glad that it has.
A few years after choosing that URL I discovered something that I had never really thought much about.
I was born into a Hindu family and Amit was not my birth name. It was in my early years my parents decided to change my name to something more easily spoken in the predominately white community where we lived.
So they decided to name me after my Bollywood Hero at the time, Amitabh Bachchan. They just shortened it to Amit.
Meaning of Amit
It was years later, and approximately 5 years after buying the URL unlimitechoice that I thought to google what my name actually meant. Unlike some other cultures, Hindu names have very specific meanings and are often rooted in the religious scriptures with Sanskrit origins.
I googled it, and what did I find?
Amit means ‘Unlimited’ or ‘Without Limit’ or Boundless.

For me, that was mind-blowing! That, to me, is no accident. Call it what you want, fate, providence, serendipity, Law of Attraction etc, it doesn’t matter what name it is given, they’re all the same to me, but I prefer to call it, the Power of Unlimited Choice.
I believe I tapped into something far greater and more powerful than most of us will ever understand but whatever it was, it’s now about choosing how to move forward with it.
Recently I was in my car thinking about how to make best use of the brand and then it hit me, Unlimited, to Un-Limit.
That’s the thing, so many live with a limited perspective, a limited mindset, but we are so much more.
My mission in life is to help you Un-Limit yourself. I want you to realise that you are so much more than you think in this moment. Most of us are living life with Imposter Syndrome but there’s no need to feel that way.
We just are a little afraid to strive for fear of not reaching. But the joy is never in the reaching, but in the striving. So long as we strive and move forward, we will always feel satisfaction.
If you’re ready to be become unlimited, join me and let me take you on this incredible journey. Stay tuned to many more announcements. My first workshops will be coming very soon!
