Yes I Can

Whether you think you can, whether you think you can’t, you are right! – Henry Ford

One of the greatest ‘yes, I can’ people I know proves the attitude in a spectacular manner.

Rajesh Durbal was born with bones missing in both legs and a very underdeveloped right arm.

In his first year of life both of his legs were amputated, so he became a triple amputee with just one full limb- his left arm.

During his early life he struggled with his disability but in 2009 he made an incredible decision: he chose to demonstrate to himself and the world what was possible with an energy, determination and level of self-belief like no other!

He spent hours and hours building and modifying prosthetic limbs to prepare to run a 5km race. This was merely a stepping stone because just one year after setting his goal – (a year of training days and nights, of building and maintaining his prosthetics), he competed in and finished the Hawaii Ironman race. Never heard of Ironman? It is a 2.4 mile ocean swim followed by a 112 mile cycle ride, followed by a full 26.2 mile run.

Rajesh completed this in 14 hours 19 minutes and 13 seconds. Now that is what I call a ‘yes I can’ attitude!

So repeat after me:

“Can I run a successful business? ………………Yes, I can”

“Can I write a bestselling book? …………………Yes, I can”

“Can I be a great parent? …………………………….Yes, I can”

“Can I run a marathon? ………………………………Yes, I can”

“Can I get an MBA? ………………………………………Yes, I can”

Can’t never achieved anything.
