ADDING VALUE: There's No Stopping Us
Years after DeFazio and Feeney moved into the same building as Lenny and Squiggy, those words still inspire.
Never heard the word "impossible."
Admittedly, these greats had grand ambitions. Laverne and Shirley's desires? Not so much. But they refused to accept impossible, as well.
Most of us won't change the world as much as George Washington Carver. No, most of us are probably a bit closer to our favorite brewery workers.
But that doesn't mean we should accept "impossible." Chances are, you've made things happen because you refused to have them not happen.
It could have been something as simple as changing your own brake pads. Maybe you put a conference together and willed it to succeed. Maybe you ran a marathon. Maybe you delivered a baby without any training.
You probably weren't thinking about the girls from Milwaukee when you accomplished what had previously been beyond your reach. Not consciously, anyway. But you embodied their spirit.
And you can do it again. You can do the impossible. Just believe.
IN THE CARAVAN: "Impossible" only means you haven't done it yet.
