Someone should have told him you need a degree to build a windmill..

Today is the first day of 2008 and a friend sent me the video clip below which I thought would be perfect for today.  For those of you who have  trained with Richard Bandler will know he installs some fantastic attitudes.

One that comes up repeatedly involves him telling a story that ends with something along the lines of 'well you should have told me it cant be done before - I've already done it.'

The essence being that anything is possible and you should not let other peoples limitations, or your own limitations hold you back.

So as you go into 2008 and set your goals for the year to come  - watch the video below for an example of how much someone can do with an anything is possible attitude.  Without conventional wisdom and 'education' holding you back.  Telling you what is and isn't possible.

William had to drop out of school due to money problems with his family and went on at the age of 14 to build them a windmill from a book…. Using his creativity and mind he built this windmill with equipment like a bicycle frame. 

I hope this video does two things for you  - (1) give you some perspective or a change of perspective on your lives and 'problems' and (2) inspires you and sets you up for a new year where anything is possible.

 

Whats your windmill. Do you have a big goal in mind. Can you find some instructions from a book, use a little creativity and just try…… you never know it just might work!

Hi there Vic & Tom great video just show what you can do with a lot of determination and the flexablity to think outside the box and a great vision.
I also remember Richard telling stories of when we were children making something out of nothing like a few stones and an old box and building a world.I love this concept and teach to everyone I work with for building resources.

By the nearly forgot happy new year 2008 it's the year
