This I Belive-Credo

Impossible is Nothing. Some may see this as three simple words but when put together this statement can drive groups of individuals to do great things. Where would the world be if individuals simply gave up when a challenging time arose? Would we still be a racially segregated nation, would we have cars and trucks to drive around? Many of the world’s greatest inventions have come about because individuals chose to grab their inner strength and refuse to accept anything less than their best. The outstanding track and field athlete Steve Prefontaine once said, "To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift." We have all been blessed with unique talents and with them we can truly do the impossible. Another common creed that drives a lot of Christian faiths that I would like to tie into my own is, "I can do all things through God who strengthens me." Most of us believe in God and I believe that the main reason that we as individuals can push the limits and do things that we would never have imagined being able to do is because we have strength from another world. I cannot claim the statement 'Impossible is Nothing' as my credo or Adidas might come hunt me down. But my credo does follow in the same lines because I believe that we have all been blessed, and with these blessings we would be wasteful not to push ourselves to our maximum potential.
