"It is not in me to withdraw."
William
Heath Ledger's character
in A Knight's Tale
I KNOW!!!!
Can't help myself.
I love this movie.
William is a man with a dream
and the determination to make it happen.
He is creating a new world,
rising from peasant boy to knight.
I have always loved this line
because it sums up what it takes
to create a new world for ourselves.
See, it's not that we stay the course
because it's right or noble or any other
reason we give for staying the course.
(Though each of those reasons is good)
We stay the course because
it's just not in us to withdraw.
Quitting isn't an option because
it's just not who we are.
See the difference?
We should all record ourselves saying this
and then play it on a loop through
headphones while we sleep.
Just get it deeply ingrained
in our subconscious so it
becomes who we are at our core.
My boys are gonna hate me at bedtime
tonight...
OK.
You won't do it,
so repeat it 5 times now:
"It is not in me to withdraw."
"It is not in me to withdraw."
"It is not in me to withdraw."
"It is not in me to withdraw."
"It is not in me to withdraw."
Now go live that out;
don't withdraw, no matter what,
and you'll
Astound Yourself Today!
