Yes YOU can!

Yesterday Lindsey Vonn won a gold medal in the Downhill Ski event. Today she fell down while racing for gold. Tomorrow she's going for another gold. Two weeks she injured her shin & could barely walk...now not only is she skiing when most would would just be walking again...but she is outracing the best in the world in the Olympics to win gold! Two important points here...when you think you just can't do it or keep pushing on...just think about Lindsey Vonn...who said screw it & won an Olympic gold medal. The other point is she believed in herself & said..."Yes I can" & she did. While she has a team behind her...it was her drive that got her through it. Too many of us depend others too much of the time & not on ourselves. Maybe if more of us thought like Lindsey & relied on ourselves & pushed ourselves instead of replying on others & "hoping" for things to come our way we would all be better off. Now while I am all for teamwork & believe in the importance of it I do believe we all need to rely on ourselves more. Mr. "Yes we can!!!" so far...has not...nor does it look like he's going to in the near future. So stop relying on others to fix things & make things happen...stop hoping for things & like Lindsey say "Yes I can"!!!
