Impossibily possible

Like they always said, “Nothing is impossible”. Whilst it is a challenge trying to achieve something which is impossible, it is also a challenge to do something which is already possible, especially when you want to outperform it.

Let’s take for example, the time is 5.30pm, you are rather bored at work, tapping your fingers, waiting to go back home and laze around. Suddenly your boss walked in, complained to you about a customer wanting to see the proposal by tomorrow noon.

He screamed, “Why he so demanding and last minute? Anyway, it is not a big figure afterall. Let’s forget about it.” He sighed and walked away.

You looked at him, looked at your watch. You know it is possible for you to come out with that proposal, but you are tired.

Question: Will you do it? Afterall, your boss is not expecting you to do it because “it is so last minute”.

At that moment, it is not about your boss or your job anymore. At that moment, it is all about you challenging yourself. It is about your character.

We always said, if we make the impossible tasks happen and become possible, we mould our character and improve ourselves.

In our daily life, there are not many things that are impossible. Impossible tasks refers to tasks which others said it is impossible and tell you that you can never do it. Those tasks surged our well-being and get us moving because they are unusual, uncommon, and challenging. But how many impossible tasks you want to perform? How long do you want to wait for another impossible task?

What about those tasks that nobody is expecting you to do? Nobody is looking, nobody is pressurizing you.. Will you do it? And with an excellent spirit? Will you challenge yourself to make it better?

Your choice.
