Your Idea

Don’t give up on your idea.

Keep forming it, shaping it, developing it, and turning it into something that will benefit mankind.

Many men had given up on the idea to build a bridge across the turbulent San Francisco channel. But one man had an idea and stuck with it until it was completed. We are still benefiting from that idea, using it over and over every day . It has brought such good and help to that community.

His bridge building ideas successfully built bridges in other communities bringing them together.

Back in my early 20s I drove across his idea… The Golden Gate bridge.

is there an idea you’ve been thinking of but haven’t yet tried? Who might it benefit? Are you holding back something that could help other people because maybe you think your idea isn’t valuable or would not work?

There will be many who do not see your vision and think it won’t work. Your idea wasn’t given to them it was given to you to make happen.

Don’t let a good idea die.

Who Says I Can’t?

Can’t do something fulfilling and meaningful?

Can’t work on a job I enjoy?

Can’t be my best self at work?

Can’t speak out my creative ideas?

Can’t find people who like what I like?

Can’t find what I like to do?

Can’t live where I want to live?

Can’t make a change in my life?

Who said these things? Is it really true? Do I have to believe it?

…or could there be something better…some other way?

Am I powerless over my own life, to cherish and challenge it, to develop it and succeed?

Is it pride to think or desire to do these things, or is it my fears trying to hold me back…keep me safe…and from what?

Because if I hold back, not only will I be held back, but by my example I hold others back.

I believe we need to think forward and move forward, constantly getting better, making better and doing better.

They said the Golden Gate bridge could not be built, but there she stands…decades later, the result of one man’s turning others ‘can’ts’ into ‘I can’!

Where do we need to take away the ‘t’ in our lives?
