How often do you listen to yourself? Are you so busy listening to the advice and opinions of others, that you fail to hear yourself?

All too often, our many hopes, dreams, and desires fall by the wayside as a result of listening to friends, relatives, and colleagues. They may genuinly mean well, but invariably they will tell you that ‘it can’t be done’. It doesn’t have to be that way, just because some folk think it can’t be done, doesn’t necessarily make it so.

Take Michelangelo, whose incredible painting adorns the roof of the Sistine Chapel. Michelangelo had unwavering belief, he refused to listen to others. Do you think the painting would be there today in all its glory had he not held on to his vision?

How about the humble bumble bee, nobody told him that engineers had declared it was impossible for him to take off and fly.

Just think of how many things we now take for granted, many that are are life saving. Yet If all the past nay sayers had been listened to, we would be deprived of most of them today.

Do you have a dream, a vision, a burning desire to achieve a goal? Don’t let yourself be discouraged, Turn a deaf ear to the prophets of doom, have faith, listen to the wee small voice inside of yourself that clamours to be heard.

If you think you can do it, then you can. You can do it if you really want to. If you can see it in your minds eye, you can achieve it.
