Possibilities

When I hear people talk about problems and what can’t be done it turns me off. I prefer to focus on what can be done – possibilities. I am not naïve, I know there are problems and obstacles to change but over the years I have seen it where the focus was on the problems and the obstacles and where the focus was the possibility, the solution. The later approach works, the former approach makes the problem worse. If someone tells me it can’t be done, you better believe I will find a way to get it done. There are no limits to human performance beyond what is self-imposed. Look forward and upward, if you stumble and fall brush yourself off get up and keep going. You can do it if you move forward step by step. Sometimes the steps are so small that they are almost imperceptible, no matter progress is still moving forward.

Look for opportunities, not limitations. Find someone to help you and support your endeavors. I used to think that if it was to be it was up to me. Now I understand that it is to be it up to WE. Roger Banister did not break the four-minute mile barrier by himself, he had help and support to do it. You can get it done, get going now, don’t wait. Tune out the naysayers, focus on the possibilities. You can find a way.
