Take the Dare

Sometimes there is too much to do. This past weekend we worked very hard at yard work, putting in a garden and opening up our 3 season porch for the summer. By the end of the 3 day holiday I think we were glad to get back to work just to get some rest! And now I look at my craft area and my list of projects to complete for my Wistful Grandma inventory and I think "It's going to be impossible to get all this done on time and keep up with my normal life too." But past experience has shown me that many times in my life I have done the impossible. And what does "impossible" mean anyway?

You can't be defeated by a word. What may be impossible today may be possible tomorrow. Although each day has the same amount of minutes the way you organize and use them can have a huge impact on what gets done. Your mind and your will shape how the day goes and what you can accomplish. So chip away at that mountain in front of you. Spit at the wind. Defy the odds. Keep working at it.

There is an excellent quote by Muhammad Ali. He said: "Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing." Impossible can't define you or what you can do. Impossible is not the last word. Impossible should be what keeps us all going. It should be the ultimate motivator. Don't stop for the impossible. Take the dare.
