I think your upper limit is often self imposed. You can believe that 85% is your upper limit, but if you achieve 85%, that would assume that you have reached your limit (ie: your ultimate potential). and then you must ask yourself ... has ANYONE ever reached their maximum potential? I doubt it. I personally don't think so. then it goes to conclude that 85% is not your limit .. but it's what you have achieved at this present state. perhaps it's the bottom of a "kinetic barrier" ... and you need to input more energy to get over this barrier. You can always do better. but then again ... maybe 85% is your profs' limit. then .. it's not really in your control is it? how fatalistic.
Saying he himself imposes a psychological barrier at 85% is complete BS. How would he know how much work must be accomplished to be close, but not over 85%? Depends more on the marker than anything else. He just happens to be in that 85 percentile, and reaching for any deeper psychological/philosophical meaning is simply overanalyzing.
