I Believe I Can Do It

December 13, 2009

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming – “WOW – What a Ride!”

I believe you can do anything you want to do.

Sometimes the days seem too long, the way is not clear, and the burden is too heavy.

I believe you can do it.

Even though some days we feel like going back to bed before we even arise, we lack the energy and courage to step out in faith, we allow our fears to cover the path we are destined to follow.

I believe you can do it.

I know that at times you wonder whether it is all worthwhile, is the pain and struggle going to end or am I just kidding myself…  maybe I should forget it and throw in the towel.

I believe you can do it.

“How can you believe in me when I don’t know if I believe in myself,” you ask.

It’s simple.

You are here for a very special reason.  The dream and passion inside of you is only for you.  It is your reason for living.  The fact that you have already traveled along the long, hard road carrying all the burden and baggage, the fact that you have had to deal with intense fears and frustrations to get where you are right now tells me a lot about you.

It tells me that you are special beyond belief.

You are strong and more committed than you think you are.

You are a child of God and couldn’t be anything less.

So I will share some words that my mentor shared with me when I was feeling overwhelmed scared to step out into my greatness.  He said, “If you can’t yet believe in yourself, believe in my belief in you.”

I did just that and found my power within.

So, take that leap today and do all those things that you’re dreaming of.  They are more than possible to accomplish, they are absolutely necessary for your growth.
