Self help 101-9: All is possible

The principle for Day #9 on the 101-day book report says: "Remove all notions of the impossible from your mind."

I think doubt is the universal self-fulfilling prophecy. But there's more to it than that. We need the impossibility blanket to protect our most tenuous beliefs.

And maybe that is what Arthur Conan Doyle was really thinking when he said:

"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth."
