Will You??

Should I wish it or will it? 

“The most important thing in life is to stop saying ‘I wish’ and start saying ‘I will.’ Consider nothing impossible, then treat possibilities as probabilities.”  – David Copperfield

My daughter Brittany once attended a summer leadership camp with the theme “I will go”.  The camp directors made it a point for every question to be answered with a loud, “I will!”  Every time someone at camp gave a challenge or asked a question, participants were to answer “I will!”  Brittany continued this after the camp was over.

Years later, while doing a college internship, a supervisor once said to her, “You never say ‘sure’ or ‘I’ll try’…you always say ‘I will!’, and I like that.  It makes me feel like I can always count on you to get stuff done.”

What do you think is so different about saying “I will!” instead of saying “Yes”, “I can do that”, “I’ll try”, “Okay”, etc?

Will you say “I will” today?  I’d love to hear your thoughts on this T4D.  If you’d like to, please head over to the blog and leave a comment.  I love reading and learning from them.
