Until the Wright Brothers obtained the first powered flight in 1903, it was impossible.
Think about that… how many planes do you see in the sky today?
Step outside, right now. Look up. I’ll bet if you waited just a few short minutes you’d see at least one!
There was a wonderful little short four-year time period when marvelous things happened. It started in 1908, when the Wright brothers flew in Paris, and everybody said, ‘Ooh, hey, I can do that.’ There’s only a few people that have flown in early 1908. In four years, 39 countries had hundreds of airplanes, thousands of pilots.
– Burt Rutan
It didn’t take long before flight was no longer an impossibility. We have planes now that carry hundreds of people!
Planes that have restaurants.
Sleeping quarters.
Showers.
So what’s impossible?
There’s a historical milestone in the fact that our Apollo 11 landing on the moon took place a mere 66 years after the Wright Brothers’ first flight.
– Buzz Aldrin
Impossible is nothing.
The difficult is what takes a little time; the impossible is what takes a little longer.
– Fritjof Nansen
So what’s your impossible?
Go back and read our post, “Show Up.”
Remember, it’s the little, positive things done consistently that lead to obtaining our goals.
Show up, do the things you need to do daily.
Understand that many people DON’T do these things because while they are easy to do, they are just as easy not to do.
There is no instant success.
There is also no instant failure.
Put the time in.
Go get your impossible.
Ready to see how we can help you obtain your impossible?
