1. Nothing is Impossible
Recently, National Geographic reported on ocean explorer Robert Ballard’s plan to use deep-sea robots to paint the Titanic underwater (yes, you read that right). “Most adults are agog at the seemingly impossible plan,” read the article on the man who discovered the remains of the Titanic in 1985. “But when he talks about it with schoolchildren, he said, ‘their first question is, What color?’” Children are famously open-minded when it comes to absorbing big concepts and remaining unfailingly optimistic about ideas and projects that might seem impossible to adults. Imagine what we could accomplish if we adopted this ability to remain positive and confident about the daunting tasks in life, both big and small?
