Are there any limits to human behavior, outside natural laws?

Are there any objective absolutes that define human behavior? Can someone potentially move their right arm forever, until they die? In theory it could be possible, but in practice not because of entropy. It would require an immanse amount of luck. Some say that our behaviors are driven by entropy. I know this is speculation about the ultimate, objective nature of human existence.

Humans don't exist, so neither does our behavior. Only reality exists, and reality is eternal cause and effect. "Humans" are just a tiny aspect of that, and completely bound by it in every way.

This is reality speaking to itself. According to itself, and its own laws.
