Read all the posts in my <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Law of Attraction in Action Series<\/strong><\/a> to see how.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s impossible!\u201d I hear that from people about many different things, often what the person wants to do or have but is convinced there\u2019s no chance of it happening\u2014giving up at the starting gate. Scientists and inventors have proven that almost nothing is impossible if you believe it, yet it\u2019s an easy cop-out for many of us. And saying, \u201cIt\u2019s impossible!\u201d means the belief you put out into the Universe is:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0It\u2019s too hard so why try?<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0There\u2019s no way that someone like me would be worthy of getting that.<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0That\u2019s for other people. My parents taught me my limits.<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0It\u2019s never been done before so surely I can\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Telling the Universe that something you want to do or have is impossible makes it even more impossible than it has to be! The Law of Attraction will see to that! Every time you say it, the belief is reinforced as your truth. Yet it doesn\u2019t have to be. It wasn\u2019t long ago that people said it would be impossible for an African American to be president. Yet Barack Obama didn\u2019t listen and proved them wrong! Where would we be if the Wright brothers believed it was impossible for a machine to fly? It was impossible for all the people who believed that but they chose to make it possible.<\/p>\n<p>Most commonly, saying \u201cIt\u2019s impossible\u201d mean it\u2019s impossible for you. Insecurity makes the possible seem impossible. But if it\u2019s possible for others, it is possible for you too! It doesn\u2019t matter how the circumstances look. Your beliefs about it makes the difference of whether it\u2019s possible. I had a client who loved the small company he worked for but saw no major opportunities for him to advance. The only higher-level position was held by a woman who was relatively young, who he believed would stay a long time. He felt discouraged as he didn\u2019t want to look for another job.<\/p>\n<p>I told him to stop believing it was impossible. As I said in my <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2012\/02\/law-of-attraction-in-action-how.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Law of Attraction in Action: HOW?<\/strong><\/a> post, when your faith is strong, the path to your goal will be shown to you. He began working on his thoughts, beginning with \u201cIt may seem impossible for me to move up high in my company, but that doesn\u2019t matter because I believe I can.\u201d He was doubtful at first but eventually got his vibration up until it was very strong. I wasn\u2019t surprised to get his call saying that the women in the much higher position decided to move on and he was asked to take her job. He made the impossible possible by changing his thoughts!<\/p>\n<p>Audrey Hepburn said, \u201cNothing is impossible; the word itself says, \u201cI\u2019m possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m possible! When you get rid of the word impossible form your vocabulary, you open yourself to more possibilities. When you accept what\u2019s possible for others is possible for you too, you\u2019ll feel more empowered. When you accept that you\u2019re worthy of miracles, miracles happen. I\u2019ve done so many things that others labeled impossible, and even that my logic told me couldn\u2019t happen. But faith overrode those beliefs so the Law of Attraction could help make it possible. Life becomes a miracle when you understand that nothing is impossible. I\u2019m possible!<\/p>\n<p>See all the posts in my Law of Attraction in Action Series <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<br \/>\n*********************<\/p>\n<p>Take the <a href=\"http:\/\/howdoiloveme.com\/the-pledge\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>31 Days of Self-Love Challenge<\/strong><\/a> and get my book, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/howdoiloveme.com\/the-book\" target=\"_blank\">How Do I Love Me?

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start &amp; Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2772","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2772"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2772\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3052,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2772\/revisions\/3052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2772"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2772"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2772"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
