Dream the impossible.... Then do it!!

At the beginning of the 1960's President John F Kennedy declared that America was going to send a man to the moon, and bring him back safely before the end of that decade.

At that time it seemed a goal to large to accomplish. The logistics and technology involved, plus the short time frame in which to succeed led to most people thinking it was impossible.

Thankfully, not everyone agreed.

40 years ago, NASA sent Apollo 11 to the moon, landed, and brought the Astronauts safely back to earth.

What is the point I'm getting at?

Firstly, how many of you have clearly defined goals? Do these goals stretch you? How many of you have them written down? Most importantly, how many of you have a set date to achieve your goal?

Michelangelo once said "the shame is not in setting your dreams too high and missing them, it's in setting your dreams too low and hitting them!"
