At first, dreams seem impossible, then improbable, and eventually inevitable.
Interpretation
Dreams often appear unachievable at first, but with persistence, they can become successful realities.
This quote by Christopher Reeve highlights the journey of pursuing dreams. Initially, they may seem far-fetched and unattainable, but as one progresses through challenges and works diligently toward their goals, those dreams can transform into something that feels not only possible but ultimately destined to happen. It serves as a reminder that perseverance and belief are crucial in the process of achieving our aspirations.
In practice
In a motivational speech to inspire students at a graduation ceremony.
I think we all have a little voice inside us that will guide us. It may be God, I don't know. But I think that if we shut out all the noise and clutter from our lives and listen to that voice, it will tell us the right thing to do.

Begin with little things daily and one day you will be doing things that months back you would have thought impossible.
There are still many more days of failure ahead, whole seasons of failure, things will go terribly wrong, you will have huge disappointments , but you have to prepare for that, you have to expect it and be resolute and follow your own path.
If something's important enough, you should try. Even if you - the probable outcome is failure.
Do not ignore you gift. Your gift is the thing you do the absolute BEST with the LEAST amount of effort."~Steve Harvey
You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That's how I've done it. There's no other way.
Ask me to play. I'll play. Ask me to shoot. I'll shoot. Ask me to pass. I'll pass. Ask me to steal, block out, sacrifice, lead, dominate. Anything. But it's not what you ask of me. It's what I ask of myself.
