March 23, 2013 - Our Potential

Our Potential


"There are admirable potentialities in every human being. Believe in your strength and your youth. Learn to repeat endlessly to yourself, 'It all depends on me.'"
     ~Andre Gide~


     Young or not, we can believe in ourselves and in our ability to get things done. The alternative - to be convinced that whatever we do makes no difference - gets us nowhere.
     Positive self-talk, like that of the locomotive in The Little Engine That Could ("I think I can, I think I can") can be surprisingly effective. Just as surprising is how often we forget this.


I will keep telling myself that I can make things happen, that what I do is important, until I believe it.
