Marc and Angel Hack wrote a brilliant post about what “walking on water” means to them. On a visit to the beach, Marc saw a little boy making valiant efforts to run across the water for as long as he could before plunging in. The young man struck up a conversation with Marc.

Marc lists 9 important considerations for anyone who has a goal that seems impossible to achieve in his blog post called How To Walk On Water
