Impossible.

That's not a word that's even in my vocabulary. Things are only impossible if you let them be.

I know, you're all looking at me thinking I'm insane, but if I go around thinking my dreams are impossible, or even long shots... then what's the point in having them in the first place?

I'd much rather just believe things I want are possible, period. Leaving room for doubt, or even the doubt of others, leaves room for defeat. It's really quite simple. Absolutely anything is possible if you believe it hard enough. For example... the competition for the Ivies is so high that Yale accepts less than ten percent of the applicants. Class of 2014 worked out to less than nine percent of the total applicants. 2015 was a whole .7 percent higher at 9.6 percent but I know I'm going to Yale. I'll find a way to make it happen. I could chose not to believe that, but well, what's the point in continuing to work myself to the bone in all of these classes at SMKS9 if I'm not going to be able to get into one of the top ranked schools in the world?

This is not just something that applies to where I'm going to school, though, but across the board in my whole life. Things will only get better if I believe they're possible.
