Yes, I do. My problem lies in willpower, so I usually accomplish averagely.

I could be a straight A student, but that would mean my social life would take a hit. I don't think an A is worth that. I'm jealous of people who can manage both well. This image may be relevant to some.

I do believe that yes but you still have to be able/willing to work hard for it.

I've been trying to teach my dog how to do calculus for four years and I'm beginning to think it's impossible.

Doesn't it actaully depend on the type of goal you're trying to achieve? But realistically speaking, I think yes.

Because no matter how much you put your mind to some things, they just can't be done.

I believe those who are saying yes (like myself) are not including things like teaching a dog calculus. However let's say I wanted to become a successful Hollywood actor, with enough work I believe I could accomplish such a feat.

That is silly and untrue.

Maybe your right, but I prefer to think that anybody is capable of accomplishing their goals as long as they put enough motivation into it.

It depends on your viewpoint of life.

Somethings, Like teaching your Dog Calculus, or wanting to be in the NBA, but you're 3 feet tall, obviously are not going to happen

But things like becoming a Billionaire or President are feasible, because we have people today who have done them.

Remember,

People used to think that flying was impossible

People used to think that 16 kilobytes of ram was enough for everything

People thought that Chemistry was at its peak and there was nothing else to find.

The Naysayers of today will be the flabbergasted of tomorrow.

There is a quote that I like that says;

Most things yes. if you have the willpower.

somethings you cannot, usually either because you'll get cheated or bested by others.
