-I can't. It's too difficult. It's too far. Too much. I'll never be able to do it. What will people think or say?

-Take control! Accept responsibility NOW for what will happen, what is happening in your life. Don't blame or thank anyone else, not your boss, your spouse, parents, siblings, or friends for your current situation. You put yourself here. You thank yourself or blame yourself, accept the truth, then resolve to do something about it, if necessary. Once you do this, you regain control. Don't like your job? Get a new one, look for something better. Don't have the skills necessary to move up the ladder, or to get a better job? Acquire them. Take a class, study in your spare time. Read up on the subject.
-Live in the now. Plan for the future, but stay in the moment. It's where it's all happening.
-Dreams are good, but don't leave them as dreams alone. Dreams are insubstantial. Take concrete steps to realise them. Set realistic but challenging goals to bring your dreams closer.
It can be done. You can move from where you are to the next level. It's up to you.

-Impossible....!

-No, just improbable. there is a very important difference here!

Life lived correctly is an execution of a work of art. The human spirit is like an instrument waiting to be tuned by physical, intellectual, spiritual and emotional experiences and exercises, in order that it may live its time on this earth to it's fullest potentiel. Some people have had the fortune to develop this to the utmost. Others don't even realise that they can have a more fulfilling existence, that there can be more than what they have now. And it's not just in terms of material posessions or financial success. What is a fulfilling existence? Fulfillment may mean happiness. What is happiness? Who can define happiness? There are some who live with a modest income and are among the happiest people on earth, as there are miserable billionaires. Happiness is in part knowing the values, ideals and beliefs that you hold dear, and living in accordance with them. Most importantly, happiness is love, loving and being loved. It is also finding your place in life, knowing what you enjoy and are good at, and living that life to it's full potentiel.
