From Alice in Wonderland, “For, you see, so many out-of-the-way things had happened lately, that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible.” Alice was developing the right kind of thinking. When we get get stymied or stuck and can’t figure something out, it doesn’t mean our situation is impossible. It means that we have found the right solution. It means we have to continue searching. That’s the way it is with most things in life. Sometimes we have to set things aside and give our mind a chance to work on the problem while we’re working on something else. Keep going back to it, you’ll get it right. Remember that failure is only final when we quit.

Think About It ~ It’s Time to Believe the Impossible is Possible
In the tale, Alice in Wonderland, the Queen says to Alice, “Sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” The queen was responding to Alice’s comment, “IOne can’t believe impossible things.” The queen tells Alice she hasn’t had much practice. That’s a good lesson for all of us. We don’t let ourselves believe in impossible things often enough. Perhaps we need to listen to the queen and give it some practice. What’s something you’ve wanted or wanted to do, but felt it was impossible. Is it time to make the impossible possible. I think so.
