I don't like the word "impossible". I don't. If there has been one glaring message in my life, it's that "impossible" is just a word in the dictionary used by those who are too scared to chase their dreams. The speed in which change happens in your life is, well, instantaneous. Some one is born and some one dies (almost) every second. People win the lotto and get fired from their jobs. The only thing constant in life is change. And with that ever present movement is possibility.
You have in your power to say at any time, "this is not how it's going to end". This is not how I want circumstances to go and I'm going to do whatever it takes to change. With the obvious exception of catastrophic disaster, there isn't much in your life that isn't in your control. Sure, it may take years, decades even, of hard work, but success is possible. Look at this amazing fact: There was only a 69 year gap between when man first took flight and man walked on the moon. In fact, the first man to fly and the first man to walk on the moon were alive at the same time. Neil Armstrong was 17 when Orville Wright died. Fast forward to 2012 when Felix Baumgartner skydived from space; and he even landed on his feet.
Diseases that once wiped out whole populations, now no longer exist due to modern medicine. Man had stepped foot on all seven continents before electricity was a common thing. With the help of telescopes, both Earthbound and ones in space, we have found galaxies, solar systems, and even exo-planets that are light years upon light years away. As I type this, there is talk of a team that is planning on a one-way trip to Mars.
The point to all this is that dreams are powerful. The bigger the dream, the bigger the catalyst to not only change your life, but change the world entire. So, stop believing in "impossible." The only person you're holding back is yourself.
