‘Impossible’ – the word itself has so much of poison and lethargy that it has killed more drives, dreams , achievements and ambitions of many people. How often we lie to ourselves that something is ‘impossible’ to achieve because it is so hard ! It is so difficult! How many ‘impossible’ things in our life are really ‘impossible’?
We all have countless excuses as to why we can’t do something worthwhile in our lives. If we can afford to make up excuses that take away a lot of energy and time, why don’t we make up excuses that inspire and enthuse us to do what we want to do?
Instead of giving ourselves reasons why we can’t, give ourselves reasons why we can.
My mould maker always used to say for any new product to be made , If there is another individual who can make that product why can’t we ! It goes without saying that our positive and negative thoughts influence every single thing in our lives. They determine what we feel about ourselves, others, and the world, and what we express about our beliefs, opinions, values and judgement.
Because our thoughts are formed by the way we perceive things depending upon our past experiences .An example of this would be when we were young and someone—a teacher, sibling, friend or even complete stranger—told us or gave us the impression that we weren’t “good enough” at something, be it studying, drawing, singing, speaking, dancing, sports or whatever. Until that person said that to us , or made us feel that way, we might not have thought that about ourselves , but now that someone else’s thought has made its way into our mind, unchallenged, we have accepted it as true.
Unless we have had reason or evidence otherwise to challenge it, we took that belief on as our own. That negative thought would remain in our mind, even if it’s pushed into our subconscious where we might be unaware of it, until something or someone triggers it, and we react to it emotionally without really knowing why.
In order to better understand our negative thinking patterns, it’s important to know how they work. The ideas and inventions that were created in the past 100 years seemed crazy when they were first attempted. Now we daily use them and cannot imagine life without them.
The tale of great people and amazing discoveries let slip the truth that whatever a human being can conceive, he/she can achieve.Your task is not to ponder how to make the things happen, rather to simply ask, “why not?”.
Pursue the ‘impossible’, for nothing is ‘impossible!’. Always remember “The impossible is often the untried!”. Take a project how difficult it may be , work on it with all the sincerity and with all the members of your club , I bet you will be surprised to see it’s outcome. Always remember the words of Napoleon Bonaparte “Impossible word is always found in the dictionary of fools .”
