'Entertaining the Possibility' is a Superpower
We quickly reject the unknown by saying, 'It is impossible.' But great things come to those who entertain the possibility of Absurd.
Look at this picture.
Someone arranged by carefully placing the stones and balancing them to defy gravity.
If you have not seen this picture,
And I ask you to arrange the stones like this..
You would have said, "This is impossible!"
But the picture is proof that it is possible.
There is a way to get this done.
Albeit the way requires highest order of patience and skill.
But the point is still that it is possible.
A lot of issues that we encounter in everyday life are like that.
We have never done something or seen someone else do it.
So when that task is presented to us, we are quick to say..
"it is impossible!" or "How is that possible?"
But the artist who would have made this for the first time..
Would have believed that it is possible..
And then they would have learned the skill to do it.
Don't be quick to reject an idea..
By quoting impossibility.
Entertain the thought for a few moments..
That might be possible.
I may not be able to do it..
So I might find someone else who might.
Or I might learn the skills needed to get it done.
Or I might find an alternate method.
Any solution will stem only if we consider..
The task might actually be possible somehow.
There are a lot of untapped possibilities in the universe.
But they are available..
Only to an unassuming mind.
