There is no bigger obstacle than the lack of your own belief in yourself. As Henry Ford famously said, "Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you are right."
I was a timid and nervous kid growing up, now I’ve just started a career as an Army infantry officer with big dreams. This couldn’t have come at a better time, thank you for supporting the journey Redfrost!!
So powerful and true. We say "can't" too much. Thank you for yet another beautiful post 🖤 Need to put it to good use, as I do with this channel to do my best.
I put my phone right next to my left ear, closed my eyes and listened deeply. I opened my eyes and tears slid because this hit the depth of my soul. Thank you for reminding me of my enemy.
Two percent of people think! Three percent of people Think they Think, and Ninety-Five percent of people would rather die than Think! Some people drink from the fountain of Knowledge, others just gargle. Amazing voice 🖖
@@SizemicKick177 He or she who insults or is critical of a man or woman who makes a point of general criticism without a specific target, only exposes their own shame in why that message he or she did not hark it. For the general point is like arrows notched to a bow and sent out in flight, and he or she who stands in the way of them it's because they deny what's in their sight. Oh ye who speaks rashly at the sight of general mentions, how much more are ye a target by choice then if you can't stand correction?
To the person who sent me this, thankyou. I don't know if I know you but I feel that I do. Out of nowhere at a time when I am struggling I reviewed it and it has made all the difference to me. Your timing was perfect. You really made a difference. Thankyou again.
Can't, what powerful life poetry by Edgar A. Guest. Very very powerful and inspiring phrases concerning the word 'Can't '. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very powerfully recited.👍👍👍
Wow...powerful words! Dont tell yourself you cant! Always work toward what you love and want. Anything in life worth doing is worth overdoing. Moderation is for cowards👊
Edgar Albert guest was known as The People's poet in his lifetime he's got a lot of great ones this is one of them I have given this poem out to about five people I know and they all really like it it had a profound impact on me next to thinking by Walter dewentel he also has another one that I like by Edgar Albert guest known as things work out equipment you and it couldn't be done
I often said “can’t” in my childhood. And my parents would always reprimand me by saying “It’s not that you can’t, it’s that you won’t”. It grew on me, now I just say “I won’t” and I end up being the asshole in the room.
Thank you for such strong and life-affirming poetry! I am also a poet and love to read philosophical poems! I always try to adhere to this rule and not say: I can’t! This denial is heard from me only by scammers and enemies. Nobody else. When a person refuses to help another, not necessarily in material terms, then he thereby undermines his authority and can be branded in the eyes of fools as mediocre and lazy, just like them. In my opinion, it’s better to be at ease and do what you think is necessary, and don’t give a damn about slander and gossip, because as they say: whoever speaks badly behind your back will remain there forever, behind you and below.
"Somebody said that it couldn’t be done, But he with a chuckle replied That maybe it couldn’t, but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried." ~~Edgar A. Guest, It Couldn’t Be Done
This is one of the themes of the best self-improvement book ever written called “seven habits of effective people”. And it drives home the point like nothing in the book.
For what I can't do is jump over highways, and much more, the four agreements to be impeccable with your word rings true here, for both can't and " can" can be true, but be very careful what you label what.
Yesterday, I answered the demon by saying I CAN when I finally rode my motorcycle into the city for the first time. It was liberating! 🎉 Fyi, I had a horrible motorcycle accident when I was a kid and it traumatized me. Of course I was sweating bullet, drank a lot of water due to nervousness, played many possibility scenes inside my head, and terrified before I encouraged myself to pushed that throttle and gliding through the city. Btw, my speed was only 10-15, sometimes 20, and I was riding only in the farther left side of the road (here right side is to pass another vehicles) until I reached my destination. Avoiding accident yo. 😅
I really like this poem he turned me on to poems that and Charles bukowski I've also printed this poem out from the internet and gave it to a lot of people they love it
"I can't " is what a trance , decieving nature that paints an unfortunate, unforgivable feature. It destroys men's ambition regardless of submission it twists and turns the truth so it is claimed and goes dark . " I can't " is not only a thought but a thought that leads to hopeless and actions of true courage led broken . Courage led by the thoughts of those with strong thoughts, fought on by win or loss . Even in the hands of I can't , yell yourself i.can
that was a sick ass poem wow. Truly beautiful. I am not someone who is very cultured or worldly enough to appreciate most art but this stirred me and inspired me to use this poem and create some art with it. I'm thinking of getting disc plates and breaking the poem up into four frames with my artwork to sit behind it.
You know...I have bee seeing a therapist for my issues but I gotta say eve though I am really terrible at being positive and believing in myself this guy makes me want to really try to be optimistic
