Just because you don't think it can be done means it's really impossible, not when a roadblock to you is just a small hurdle to me.

It's a bad pet peeve that annoys me so when I hear people say "It can't be done" without even trying to look for possibilities.

Like, so what? It's hard? Then think outside of the box. You want it, right? Find other ways. Unless you've actually put out your best effort and sought ought resources that could help, don't even think of mentioning it can't be done.

Some people face hard things all the time. And guess what? It can be done.

There are some things that simply can't be altered or changed until a certain time. Your attitude about it means a great deal in those times.

I feel that way whenever someone says a movie from about 40 years ago couldn't be made today. I feel like why? Just because some elements about the film are controversial now, it doesn't mean you can't adapt and change it without compromising the overall story.

If you change it, it means you are not making it the same way. The fact you have to change it means it’s not the same. Now, people with a backbone WILL make it the same, and have the courage to stand behind their work, and not be swayed by the PC of modern day. @VictoryBeard

What annoys me is when someone says “if I can do it, anyone can do it.” It’s true that some can find ways to do things that others will never be able to do for various reasons and variables.

@Carissimi For some, it's not a matter of choice but necessity. Some people do better because they have to.

Not anyone can do that, I know. But for the people around those who are like me, I think they ought to at least try to help. Otherwise, they just become burdens.

I suppose it depends on the context. You are saying people should try and help, so it sounds like a specific situation you are in. @Casheyane

I feel the same way. I live by the motto “Happiness is a choice.” The response I always get is that it’s impossible. It can’t be done. You can’t choose happiness.
