I have a poem taped to my work computer that has been with me for years - different jobs, different computers. Whenever I'm feeling stressed out or overwhelmed, I just peer over my keyboard to look at these words.
Listen to the Musn'ts - Shel Silverstein
Listen to the MUSN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'Ts
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS,
The IMPOSSIBLES, THE WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me -
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
