Where there is a will there is a way

One of my favorite sayings is "Where there is a will, there is a way." I like it because I believe it to be true and it is empowering. Just think of all the wonders that we have in the world today. Humans had the will to fly, talk to people across the globe from your own living room, and even go to space. For each and everyone of these wills man has found a WAY to make it happen.
This just goes to show the power of the human mind, if all of these amazing feats were capable of being done, what is to say that your dream is unattainable. No matter how far fetched the dream may seem; "Where there is a will there is a way". Can you imagine what people would have said a hundred years ago, if you were to tell them about the technology that we have today. They would think that you are crazy. As with anyone with a dream I am sure that you have come across naysayers who assert that your dream is impossible. The problem with the naysayers is that they rely to heavily on the past. If they have never seen this dream accomplished or hold false beliefs that only a lucky, select few, ever achieve success then they are bound to shoot down any idea of the future that challenges what they have seen in the past.
People have the ability to create their own future despite the events of the past. Instead of continually looking to the past as justification for who you are and as an indicator of what the future will bring, look at what you desire to become and find a way to make it happen.
