Rub your eyes and purify your heart ? and prize above all else in the world those who love you and who wish you well.

Impossible becoming possible

You probably can’t do the impossible. But you’ll never know for sure unless you make the attempt.

The history of achievement, perhaps even including some of your own, is filled with examples of the impossible becoming possible. People give it a shot and sometimes they do succeed.

You may or may not achieve the impossible. Yet on the way there you’re likely to make some pretty impressive progress.

The higher the challenge, the more strength, skill, competence and persistence you’ll gain from pursuing it. Seeking to do what you cannot do gets you a whole lot better at what you can do, even if you fall short of achieving the impossible.

At the outer boundaries of what’s possible you’ll find fertile ground, rich opportunities, and a new perspective on your own capabilities. It’s territory that’s certainly worth venturing into now and then.

There have always existed possibilities beyond the possibilities. Experience the value in seeking some of your own.

— Ralph Marston
