Running around the world today I realized that I wasn't really running around the world. I know, it's a fairly standard thing to run around the world, but I haven't done it. Superman can, but I can't. And not running around the world led me to think about all of the other things I can't do.
Breathing water: This would be handy for sleeping in the bathtub.
Eating granite: I mean, it would make it so much easier to get all the rocks out of my garden...but I think I would have to broaden that to eating rocks.
Finishing my prize winning novel: Okay, I can't really think why this would be useful, but I've heard that it is exhilarating at the very least.
So, you got me, I'm just joking around. But It's such a common complaint among people who want to do something great. I've got it too. But just finishing a project is often all it takes to get to the next step. Sometimes I forget that it takes a lot of hard work and (let's be honest here) mistakes to become better.
So, if I add nothing to your life today, let me not add that it is often better to do something than nothing. Especially when that something paves the way to something great.
