Be the One Who Will

“There are three kinds of people in the world, the wills, the won’ts and the can’ts. The first accomplish everything; the second oppose everything; the third fail in everything.” – Eclectic Magazine

When people are faced with a challenge, their response often tells you everything you need to know about how things will turn out.

Some people immediately begin listing all the reasons why they can’t do something. Excuses come quickly, and before they ever take a single step forward, they have already convinced themselves that failure is inevitable. Others take a slightly different approach. They won’t even consider trying. They are comfortable where they are, set in their ways, and unwilling to risk stepping outside of what feels safe. In many ways, they allow fear to quietly dictate the boundaries of their lives.

Then there is a third group.

These are the people who choose to believe. Before the challenge even begins, they have already decided that they will give it everything they have. They approach new opportunities with excitement, determination, and a willingness to see what is possible.
