If you knew you couldn t fail, what would you try?

The media is awash with stories of incredible people, doing incredible things. If it s not travelling non–stop around the world on a unicycle, they might be building their own eco–house or a multi–million pound business from scratch. Do you watch these people and wonder Could I do something amazing too?

Most of us envy the drive and determination of such people. They ve made stuff happen rather than just daydreaming about it.  But do you really know where your limit is? Do you have any idea of what you re truly capable of?

The only thing holding you back is you.

We all have challenges that we would love to take on, but for some reason, there s a gap between us and what we d love to achieve. The question is how can we bridge that gap?

Could I Do That? shows you how to embrace change and defeat the limiting beliefs that will enable you to tackle those challenges whether big or small that seem too daunting or even impossible.  With examples and advice from others who have achieved big things, and plenty of practical tips to set you on your way, you ll learn that you too, can do something extraordinary.
