What if my dream isn't plausible?

To that question, all I can say is "yeah, so what??"  From the movie The Pursuit of Happyness Will Smith has a great quote:

"You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period."

 

Growing up I can always remember hearing the statistic that the chances of playing a professional sport are 0.03 percent.  So I did a little research this morning and this is what I found:

 

There are 450 players in the NBA

There are 1,696 players in the NFL

There are 1,280 players in the MLB

 

That is a total of 3,426 players in only three sports!  That isn't even counting the minor leagues or the countless other sports.  That right there is 3,426 people who decided to ignore that statistic and say "yeah, so what??"

 

The power of a dream comes from that fact that even if you do not reach that final end goal, you will still gain something from the journey.  How else do you plan on learning the concept of determination, discipline, and standing up for what you believe in??
