Somebody said that it couldn’t be done,
But, he with a chuckle replied
That "maybe it couldn’t," but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
Somebody scoffed: "Oh, you’ll never do that;
At least no one has done it";
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle it in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start to sing as you tackle the thing
That "couldn’t be done," and you’ll do it.
- Edgar Albert Guest

This says that just because someone says its impossible doesn't mean it really is.
ReplyDeleteThis means never let someone tell you can't do something that you haven't tried,and just because it looks impossible doesn't mean it is.
I can apply this in my life by going for the things or tasks that are hard to do or may seem impossible to others and show them that some things are possible to do and not to give up til you try.
It says that you have try and ignore the people who believe you can't do it.What that means is that people will try to be logical to tell you that you can't do. If you don't try how will you know if it's impossible ignore people because they want to bring you down. It matters because people tell you that you can't do it but you need to see what your really made of. Don't be afraid to try if something seems impossible you at least have to try. If you can tackle the obstacle that's good if you can't well at least you learned something from it. Other people are afraid of you to succeed so they tell you to quit or it's impossible because they think that you can't do it so you can look bad. You should always try to prove them wrong. I can apply this to my life by always tackling the obstacles I have right in front of me. I need to ignore those people who don't believe I can do it because in reality there not successful. I should always try to prove others wrong. I should not let what people think get the best of me because I will start thinking of failure. So it's important to try and tackle it.
ReplyDelete1).Don't quit on your dreams.
ReplyDelete2).You can do anything you want.don't give up on what you belive.
3).You can apply this to you're by not giving up.Live up to you're potentials.Don't let what other people think stop you from doing what you want.You can accomplish anything that you want.Don't let anybody make you think otherwise.
If you feel that there is something that you can do then go for it and don't stop until your done completing your goal.If there is difficult obstacle in your then try to overcome it. Don't give up on it.
1. This quote says that you shouldn't not try to do something just because others don't believe in you .
ReplyDelete2. This quote means that yo shouldn't give up . Like don't knock it until you try it because you never know what the outcome might be .
3. This quote matters because a lot of people when they hear bad comments they just want to give up . And, some don't even want to try because they have a bad vibe from others around them . so, they feel from all of the negative energy that they should just give up because they have no support . But, that's when you need to be self motivated . when you have to believe in yourself . Because you can't depend on everybody to help you when your feeling down or when you don't believe in yourself . so, you have to pick yourself back up and tell yourself that you can do it .
1].That there was a guy that no one believed in him.He did all he could to prove every one wrong.
ReplyDelete2].That no matter what people think about you don't give up.With out no one knowing he started what every person thought could not be done.To forget what ever others say and just do it.
3].I can apply this to my life by doing what I can.Not caring what others have to say because they could be wrong.It matters because all lot of people tell you you can't do it so you will not succeed.People are going to say it can't be done but there's a way for every thing to be done.
1. This post says that you shouldn't say something can't be done unless you have tried it before.
ReplyDelete2. This post means that you shouldn't let people tell you what you can or can't do. Always try your best do what you want to do.
3. This post matters because its true. Don't let other people influence your decisions. do what you want to do. don't let people tell you what you should or shouldn't do. Believe in yourself and try yourself.
I can apply this to my life by not letting people tell me what to do. Also by not saying something is impossible if I haven't tried it myself. I have to make my own decisions and not let anyone tell something is impossible. I need to try my best in everything I do.
This is saying when people say you can't do it just sing and you'll finish it.
ReplyDeleteThis means that many people will say you can't accomplish that task. You have to believe in your heart that you can do it and don't let anyone stop you.
This matters because it can apply to anyone's life in this classroom. Maybe some students have heard their parents or friends or any other family members say you can't do that or you can't do this. thousands of people will point fingers at you thousands will say negative things towards you. You have to be willing to take off your coat as it said in the quote and go straight into it and you'll finish.
its mainly saying that just don't quit the things in life that's ahead you already started. If people tell you that you cant do it believe that you can do any thing you put your mind into doing. Yeah life might be getting harder and harder all you got to know is that any thing you can put your mind to do just do it.
ReplyDelete- This post says that no matter how many people tell you that you can not do something, it doesn't matter, if you believe it, you can achieve it.
ReplyDelete- This post means that, just because somebody tell you you can't, means you can. Just because it has not been done, does not mean that it can't be done, or that it can't be accomplished.
- This post applies to my life because since I was in the 7th grade people constantly told me that I wouldn't make it out of 8th grade, I did it, with one of the top graduating honors classes of Bret Harte 2008. I was told that I wouldn't make it to high school, I did it, I would fail all my classes and be out here gang banging. Well I passed them, got a few D's but I'm fixing it. And gang banging, affiliated, but not me. SO I'M DOING IT, IT'S GETTING DONE, I'M MAKING IT POSSIBLE.
- This can apply to everyone's life because nobody is denied an education, nobody is told that they can't/shouldn't. It is what you believe that keeps you from being YOU! Belief in your future and in your sight seeing is all that matters. Keep that in mind. SUCCESS IS THE NEXT STEP AFTER YES!- Treasure P.
1. This post says not to let other people let you down and tell you that you can't do it.
ReplyDelete2. This means that you should believe in your self and even if people say that it can't be done always try your best and prove them wrong. Always have trust in your self and go for it because you will never know what may happen
3. This matters because its true and I agree with it. People now and days do try to make you avoid things that they couldn't do so they just say that its impossible to do. Everyone should just take a challenge and try to do it because at the end it may turn out good. The post means to do things without doubt and without giving up, if you do things with those two strategies you will accomplish your goals. Tackle every single of your goals don't let anyone bring you down because no one knows what you are capable of, only you know what you are capable. At the end everything may turn out good and everyone will be shocked and impressed.
I can apply this to my life because people do try to tell me that I won't make it but that just makes me not even want to try to do it, but I should know that their opinions aren't nothing and that they just bring my hope down.
1) It says that even though people think you wont be able to do nothing, just smile and say that maybe it "couldn't be done" and do it.
ReplyDelete2) It means that when you try your best on something other people couldn't do they are going to say you cant do it but you can if you try. Just have a positive attitude and do your best.
3) This matters because in this world there are a lot of hatters and they try to bring you down on many things. Do what you want to do and ignore every negative comment they give you because at the end you'll see who's the winner.
I can apply this to my life by doing beyond the possible and letting people say whatever comes to their head if it's positive I'll take the comment if it's negative I'll ignore it. All they try to do is make you go down but you cant let yourself. Just smile and act casual so they can't see your weak because your not. Just do your best and keep going.
1)*this say just because somebody say something you can ot allways belive them
ReplyDelete2)*This quote means that yo shouldn't give up . Like don't knock it until you try it because you never know what the outcome might be .
3)*This quote matters because a lot of people when they hear bad comments they just want to give up . And, some don't even want to try because they have a bad vibe from others around them . so, they feel from all of the negative energy that they should just give up because they have no support . But, that's when you need to be self motivated . when you have to believe in yourself . Because you can't depend on everybody to help you when your feeling down or when you don't believe in yourself . so, you have to pick yourself back up and tell yourself that you can do it this is how this matter to me .
1)I think think that this say that some things that can't be done can be.
ReplyDelete2)I think that this mean that some people will tell you that something thing can't be done because that had try it, and this because they can't do it you meat can do it.
3)I can apply this to my life because on football game we had everybody told use that we wasn't going to win because that was batter this use. But we went out there and did that unthinkable and we blow them out. This matter because something that you think that you think that you can't do you can, and do it better then everybody that try to do it.
1) I think that it is saying that if if you try something you'll do it right the first time
ReplyDelete2) This means that just because someone tells you that it is impossible to something its because they can't do it them-self. I also think it means that just because a person tell so no one has done a certain thing and that it is impossible to do, it doesn't mean that you can go and give it a try.
3) This matters because it is telling us how there are people that tell others that there are an impossible tasks that no one has done and some people get scared and don't do it but, here it telling us how there are people that try to accomplish the task get over it how they don't care how hard it my be or difficult but they try and by giving it a chance they do it and they did the impossible
1.)This says about a man that people kept telling him that he can't do it right and he did it right.
ReplyDelete2.)This means that we suppose not to let no one put us down.If they tell us that we can't do it then we gotta tell them yes I can.
3.)This applies to my life because their have been times were i have to do something that people think i can't do.So,what people do to me is they would come over to me and they would tell me "oh your gonna get embarrassed out there,you can't do it right."One i did was not let them bring me down i have to keep my head up and keep succeeding.We can't let no one bring us down to failure.Then if they bring us down to failure later one day we are gonna want to go back to the past and your gonna want to do everything all over again.
A lot of people that i know usually don't like to do things because people like to criticize them.Then they stop doing whatever talent they had.I have past through that before because i play drums for my church when i began to play i was not good at all them the guy that played the guitar would tell me that was bad at playing,but then my brother came and told me to not let that comment stop me to keep practicing and then i would get better now I'm good at drums.
1) This is saying that if people tell you cant just ignore them.
ReplyDelete2)This means that many people will try to make you stop from doing what you want to do.Although no one has done what you are trying to do it doesn't mean that you will fail.
3)This matters because many people will try to make your hopes go down.There will be others who will try to help you but there will be mostly others who will try to make your hopes go down.Also it says when people start talking you should start to sing.Although no one has done what you are trying to do you should keep trying because it will be worth it.
Life is not easy and you have to do many things so you can get were you want to get to. If you try really hard it will be worth it because you will be the first one to do it.Many people will say you can't because they want you to be like them.It's better to be the first one because at least you wont be like them stuck in one place for the rest of your life.Also you will notice who is really your friend because friends are the ones who are in the good and bad times.
1.)It says that to don`t fear no one.Keep on stepping don`t retreat.
ReplyDelete2.)It means to do whats possible because their is a thousands of people trying to reach for that goal.That`s is to import things.
3.)It matters because to buckle something is really serious to somebody.But the only thing is that to tell someone to take of their coat will be a really serious thing to say.
This says to do what cant be done.
ReplyDelete2)This means like to "take off your coat" and get comfortable at what your doing.Do the impossible, if its told it cant be done prove them wrong.Establish to them what cant be done, And do it.Many and Many people are going to tell you what you cant do but its up to you to determine the outcome.Be the one who stands up to those Blaank and make history do what haven't been accomplished.
3)This matters because any and everywhere its people telling you what you cant do.Its Always people holding you back from doing the do.This matters because a lot of thing we do we are not comfortable with it.This quote is telling us to be satisfied and delightful with it.Some times you have to come from out of your comfort zone to get up them stair of success.
3.5)I can apply this to my life because its people everywhere i go telling me what i can and cant accomplish.Even my family, If i don't believe i really wont have any support on my side. Its hard enough proving statics wrong,And me being a common denominator. i guess
♥♡♥♡♥♡☛☞☛☞ Jaaassss'Miineeee™
1) this is saying that people will tell you that something can not be done but it can if you work hard.
ReplyDelete2) this means that people will always say you can not do something or it is impossible but don't believe them. keep trying, do your best, & believe and you can.
3) this matters a lot for many reasons. it matters because we often listen to what people tell us. we really listen to the negative things they have to say. we even sometimes believe in the failure they preach to us. but to listen ands believe these things are wrong.
i can not believe or listen to those people who tell me i can not do something. there will always be people telling me that and there will always be people like that. i can not allow the negative energy of failure to consume me. i have to have an attitude that it can be done. i have to strive and never quit. i have to believe it can be done and try before just saying it can not be done. if i try hard enough and don't quit, giving it my all and etc it can be done.
1.}it means don"t loose no sleep for no man or no body period trust no body but your self and life will be easy.
ReplyDelete2.}its going to be many of people that are going to bring you down so don"t let them be your own man and you will get far in life.
3.}people in this world will try to bring you down but its up to you to stay up and on top of the game. it matter that feel left out
-This passage is saying that someone will always be around to tell you that the things that you are trying to do can be done. If you believe in yourself and keep on trying , you will prevail in what you are trying to accomplish.
ReplyDelete- This quote means to never give up. Never listen to whoever tells you that something cant be done because you will never know until you try to work it out.
-This can b used in life because many people let people tell them what they can and cannot do. Some tend to listen to the devil in there ear telling them they cant do it. Don't listen to that voice because misery loves company and there will always be that one person to try and hold you back ' but keep on driving and pushing yourself until you prevail.
1. This says what you think can't get done is always a way to get done.
ReplyDelete2. This means you will never know what can really be done in any situation. You have to go for it and do it in order for it to be done.
3. This matters because if you just always saying that things can't be done then you will never know what can really be done in life. Also if you don't do it then it will never get done until you get to it. If you don't believe in yourself than things want get done an it makes it harder on you when you need it done!
I can apply this life because if I never get my work out done during track practice and I know I need it done it want benefit me when it comes down to the real races. If I do my work outs and get my work out done correct then it will help benefit me when it comes down to the races. I can never get faster than what I am if I never get the work done. Listen to other people can prevent me from making it possible to get the job done and if that happens than it makes it harder on myself.
