Then get into it!
Get acquainted with it!
Take charge of it.
Learn how to sweat and work.
Learn how to accept failures and setbacks.
And keep it simple.

"Cut the word 'impossible' out of your vocabulary and dictionary.
Replace it with 'possible'!
 
Dream a new dream;
rebirth an old dream.
 
All things are possible.
Believe it, dream it.
 
Tackle the impossible.
You can do it with God.
It is He who gives you that dream.
 
Together with God, you can make those dreams, realities!
 
* Dr. Robert Schuller
