Life is Too Short to Think Small
Know Your Limits, Then Ignore Them!
Life is too short to think small. Most people could do more than they think they can, but usually do less than they think they can. You never know what you cannot do until you try.
If you devalue your dreams, rest assured the world won't raise the price. You will find that great leaders are rarely "realistic" by other people's standards.
The answer to your future lies outside the confines that you have right now. If you want to see if you can really swim, don't frustrate yourself with shallow water. Cavett Robert said, "Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved has already defined his own limitations." Rather be as Art Sepulveda said, "Be a history maker and a world shaker." Go where you have never gone before.
The Bible says, "Things which are impossible with men are possible with God." (Luke 18:27)
To believe an idea impossible is to make it so. Consider how many fantastic projects projects have miscarried because of small thinking or have been strangled in their birth by a cowardly imagination. Somebody is doing what somebody else said couldn't be done. Dare to think unthinkable thoughts.
Develop an infinite capacity to ignore what others think can't be done. Don't just grow where you are planted. Bloom where you are planted and bear fruit. Daniel Webster said, "There is always room at the top."
No one can predict to what heights you can soar. Even you will not know until you spread your wings.
