About 'I think I can'...

Hello Friends,

I love the story about the little engine that could. It’s a story of a small engine who agrees to pull a long train over a high mountain. As he pulls the train he repeats over and over again ‘I think I can…I think I can’. It’s a story of determination and hard work and a reminder by focusing your thoughts and energies you can achieve the desired outcome. As importantly it's a genuine belief you will get there. Sometimes we may pause and ask ourselves if we have what it takes or if we can achieve the goal.

I believe we all have moments that cause us to wonder if the effort and focus towards that which we aspire is worth what it takes to get there. Yet you only have to stop for awhile, look back on past successes and the sense of satisfaction you experienced in reaching your goal, to say once again ‘I think I can’ and keep moving forward. When I began my journey of 365 days of inspiration my friend asked me ‘do you think you can write 365 days of inspiration’ and I said ‘I think I can’. Perhaps in reflecting I should have said ‘I know I can’ and that very sense of focus and belief will propel me forward to making that goal a reality. Until next time…
