Sometimes we can see something that may look impossible to everyone around us. That vision may be ours and ours alone. But then the chatter begins. The negativity swirls around us with people’s doubts and discouraging words. That is the time that we must dig inside and give it all we’ve got to make it happen.
Never give up, stay focused and work toward achieving the impossible.
This post was inspired by a conversation I had with someone who is dear to me yesterday. I want to encourage you to keep pressing forward. Stay positive and don’t let people’s negativity distract you from your goals. You can do it!
Start tuning out the negativity and achieving the impossible. Here’s a poem written by Edgar Guest that illustrates this point further:
It Couldn’t Be Done
Somebody said that it couldn’t be done,
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you’ll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it”;
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing
That “cannot be done,” and you’ll do it.

Keep believing and achieving the impossible!
