do you guys believe anything is possible?

[JohnChops]

Do you fellas believe that anything is possible with the right mind set? I feel like the human body and brain are close to limitless with the right guidance and mindset to push forward. what do you guys think? Ive always been curious about this question.

It's not possible that you can "wish" yourself to the moon, or live there without millions of $ spent in support. If it's something that is humanly feasible to accomplish, of course it is then possible for any human to achieve that thing. If it's something requiring great physical feats, however, and you are a cripple, it's not going to happen, etc.

No, and you watch tv. Man has been trying to find ways to escape death since the begenning, and no one on this earth have done it yet. Even the messiah died.

The problems begin when one tries to define "anything".

Question why you think like that.


You have two half brains, left and right, one is responsible for creative thinking, the other one for calculative thinking. In other words one is for reality, the other one is for possibilities. You thinking that anything is possible because your right brain is overly active at this moment in time. However, with reality this has nothing to do. Reality is right here and right now, this moment of time you are in now, that is your reality. If you want to achieve something your right brain is imagining you have to get up your ass and do something.

Don't forget to ask the CRUCIAL economic question (the one which politicians are terrified of)

At What Cost?

sure, you can be a world class piano player, but AT WHAT COST?

sure, you can make a million dollars, but AT WHAT COST?

however, you also need to comply with the laws of chemistry, physics, biology, and DNA (like it or not...)

You only need 1/4 million to retire in the US, if you single, childless and intend to stay that way. If you are young, and (foolishly) want a dependent wife and kids, one million probably wont do the trick, cause you'll need to gross on the order of 300k per year in order to properly raise some kids, have the wife not work, and afford the tutors, babsysitters, nannies, etc, needed to keep your wife reasonabley sane. Making 30% per year, every year, without fail, on investments is not at all easy to do, guys. So you need more like 4 million bux to do the trick, knowing no more than young guys know about the world. That's 4 million left after you pay the tax on the original money. So you'd really need more like 6 million. That's what kids and a non-working wife cost you. Choose, stay childless and retire after working 5-6 years, or keep working for 50 years. and about 20 years into it, the deck is heavily stacked that some disaster will occur, like alimony, child payments, etc, which ruin most hubbies/dads for another 20 years (at least)

Your mind doesn't exactly have the power to do anything, but it does have the power to make you operate at 100% of your potential.

Yup, I agree with this statement that everything possible in this world if you make your mind that you just should do it you definitely do that. Decision power is a play main role in making impossible into possible.....................
