my Philosophy is that the skys the limit. We can achieve anything we want its just that about 95% of the people dream about it and are too lazy to achieve their dreams. The sky might be the limit but we make the celling the limit just becaue how ****ing lazy people are.

I believe we are told we can do everything we want and achieve all kinds of stuff, and we take it in and believe it, but it is a fact that only a minority of those people will actually make it to the top.

I'm going to call that ideaslistic, only because I think "naive" might sound rude. The fact is that every one is limited in inumerable ways.

I mean really how far can human beings go really?
There's no such thing as the sky's the limit, because after the sky there's so much more
How do you know you hit the top, wouldn't you just keep going?

I disagree with lil's because Alot of us are told we can do what ever we want that is true. and some times people dont make it like many people for example try out for the MLB and work their ass off all their life and dont make it. But for the majoriy of people their realistic dreams can come true if they just work at it.

I think if people apply themselves most of them can achieve some of their dreams. Obviously god given talent is a big part, but with practice and alot of work, people can achieve alot.

welll..that's a silly philosophy deniro. you simply eliminate the randomness of events that can hit a person during a life time.
SOme are indeed lazy, however far from 95%. You can't achieve everything you plan on. You'll find life in you way a lot of times.
A strong mind is important...but there's a measure of luck needed also.

I think that "you can do/be anything you want to do/be" is naive. Gregory was right. We all have different capability levels, but we also have limits. All we can do is try

I totally agree. talent does play a big part in it but even with great talent you need to pratice. just like in bodybuilding say you want to be a great bodybuilder and you have the best gentetics ever but if you dont lift weights then whats the point of having good genetics. Alot of people have oppurtunities and they just kinda half ass it to get to them and then they are gone before they can even start complaining

Not uh guys! My mom says that one day I could be President of the World!!
Ok but seriously. Today, I think that if you want something in life, it is much much more difficult than when it was back in the day. But I still think it can be done. You can do anything you want in life, but you have to have the will power to do it. Now if you're talking about physical acts of strength, there is definitly a limit to that...because not everyone can fly "like a bird." But there are means of flying by piloting planes and helicopters.
Getting the career you want in life has gotten a lot easier because there so many more educational facilities around the world.

Well here's the deal. I think that there are too many people saying "you can do anything if you work hard enough at it". Certainly true much of the time, but it almost kind of makes people NOT work towards their goals as hard as they need to... They think, for example, "ah dammit I don't feel like practicing today... but hey my band teacher says I can do anything so I'll just do it later". If that makes sense at all. Just about any individual goals are possible, but a lot of times you really do have to work for them.
Personally i trully think literally the sky is the limit, and if you push it the moon. All this space exploration is crap, totally useless and a waste of reasources (I'm studying to be an aerospace engineer mind you), truly space is for idiots... the moon is are limit because the only thing its good for is mining it... we will never get to mars and even if we do it will be completely useless. Yet it also is my policy that all things are possible ... but are they worth it?... thats the true question.
