What Can You Do?


While it's good to believe in yourself, it's also good to know yourself. You have to know your limitation's and your strengths.

Often we dream high without realizing the steps necessary to achieve our goals. A friend of mine made a very interesting statement. He said that everyone can't be president, even after our newly inaugurated President Obama. He also made a point of saying that applies to everyone, no matter race.

After a brief moment, I concluded he was right. Everyone can't be president. Yes, everyone can dream of being president but everyone can't do it.

The same applies for normal, everyday life circumstances. You may want to be a doctor but if you aren't good at science, guess what? You probably shouldn't be a doctor (at least not one that tends to my needs).

Take a look at something else, something you are good at and something you want to do. The most successful people aren't necessarily the people who have everything planned out. Many times the most successful people are the people who hit speed bumps along the way and still come out on top.

So let me ask you: What do you want to do and what can you do? :))
