Affirmation for July 29, 2010: Yes, You Can
I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do. - Edward Everett HaleThought of the day:"Can't" is a powerful word. It's a word that signals defeat, an easy out. Don't let this word overpower you-- as the quote says, you can do something. Focus on that, and make it happen. When it feels like we're failing, look forward to the next little success and don't allow failures of the past bog you down.One example of this is the job search that many are experiencing today. It only takes one person to say "you're hired" to erase all the employers who have turned you down, so focus on that one person every time you complete a new job application. The only way you can truly fail is if you tell yourself "I can't." But by keeping your head up and your applications coming, you always have a chance at success.Have a successful day!TeamDS

Thanks for that. I\'m not seeking a job but it applies to me in a different sense and needed that today.
Thank you so much for the thought. I needed those words today even if it isn\'t concerning a job.

Sorry. I didn\'t write anything on last one.
these are small words, but they are very strong encouragement words.
thanks
Thank you so much. Truly inspiring and uplifting. Everyone needs to print this out and put it someplace where you will see it on a daily basis. I know for myself- I always tend to get ahead of myself and think of EVERYTHING that I need to do, or everything that is going wrong. This brings it back to.....Rome wasn\'t built in a day...so take it one step at a time and focus on the positive.
