Whenever somebody discredits you, and tells you that you can’t do something, keep in mind that they are speaking from within the boundaries of their own limitations. Ignore them. Don’t give in. In this crazy world that’s trying to make you like everyone else, find the courage to keep being your awesome self. And when they laugh at you for being different, laugh back at them for being the same. - via http://www.marcandangel.com/

I never automatically accept it when someone tells me that I can't do something. I just assume that they can't.

If I can't figure out how to do it, I may spend a tremendous amount of time obsessing over it until I find a solution, regardless of how impractical it may be.

I figure I can do anything I want to, but some things aren't worth the effort and time I would have to invest in order to achieve it. But I like this as I like to go after my dreams. Those are totally worth the effort. Tue Jan 10, 2012 6:46:55 pm

The last clause of the last sentence makes me sad. I don't think laughing at people for having limitations is nice.
BUT I LOVE THE REST OF IT. It's so important to understand that people's responses to us have as much to do with their way of being as it does with our own. Unless, of course, you're a serial killer. Then it's all about you and how you really shouldn't be doing those things.

Sometimes there are people who tell me that I CAN do something and then I tell them that I can't.
