And the Welcome to the Radical Personal Finance Podcast for Monday, August 18, 2014. I thank you for being here. Mobile podcasting today, I am on the road.

But I wasn't going to leave you without a show. I wouldn't do that to you. What would you do without your daily dose of

radical personal finance podcast? I couldn go one day without a show.

But I'm doing my best to bring you a show every day.

And I just want to give you something thought-provoking.

Today's show is going to be very different than any show we have ever done,

and it will be shorter than any show we have ever done and it will be shorter than any

show we have ever done.

I am currently sitting here on the shores of Lake Austin in Austin, Texas.

I've been this weekend at the Podcast Movement Conference in Dallas and then came up to or down to

Austin to visit a friend of mine and I'll be back with you soon with full-length

shows but today I am going to share with you a thought-provoking poem I've've had a wonderful weekend. I will do, I'll give you some

information and some of the things that I learned attending this conference. I've had an awesome time and it was really

a great experience for me. But I don't have time today to record that, so I'm going to leave

you today with one of my favorite poems. This is a poem entitled It Couldn't Be Done, and the author is Edgar Albert Guest.

I won't give you any commentary or interpret it for you.

I will leave that up to you.

Somebody said that it couldn't be done but he with a chuckle replied that maybe it

couldn't but he would be one who wouldn't say so till he'd tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a

grin on his face if he worried he hit it. He started to sing as he tackled the

thing that couldn't be done and he did it. Somebody scoffed, oh you'll never do that.

At least no one has done it. But he took off his coat and he took off his hat and the first thing we knew he'd begun it.
