Sunday Reflections~ That's Why I Did

"They told me I couldn't. That's why I did."

I have always been a very stubborn person. I have gotten better over the years, but for the most part I am not easily swayed. I think that I am the most headstrong and determined when someone tells me I can't do something. I am not talking about things like "Don't do drugs" because I don't plan on doing that period. I am talking about the people who say that you are crazy for wanting to reach your dreams, or say that you will never be able to do something you really think you can do. When someone tells me I can't, or won't, be able to do something it just gives me more motivation to do it! We are all going to be shut down and told we can't do something at some point in our life, and we need to find the strength and determination to use their disbelief as a jumping off point for our success. We need to be able to say that because you don't believe in me I will try; that I will work my hardest to prove you wrong.

 

What do you do when someone tells you that you cannot do something?
