DADISM # 27

"You can do anything if you just set your mind to it."

{Another way of saying "anything's possible if you just apply yourself," this dadism re-enforces the belief that everything you do is 50% mental attitude, and is the basic building block of all military training. It’s not whether your body will do the feat; it’s whether your mind can tell your body to do the feat.}

Many in our country today look at this dadism and say it doesn't account for human limitations and they site the facts that only one in approximately 14 million people will make it to the Olympics and even fewer will grow up to be President of the US but those people fail to acknowledge the mental desire to achieve those acts by Olympians and Presidents.

If you have the desire or drive to excel, you will excel.
