In Lewis Carroll's 1871 classic Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, the White Queen famously tells Alice, "...sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." At first, this quote might seem nonsensical. After all, how can you believe in six impossible things before your morning coffee?

The Queen's words reveal an important lesson: she encourages Alice to embrace the idea that things once thought impossible can become achievable. This mindset is crucial for thriving in 2025. It’s about recognizing your ability to break past limitations, actively learn, and try new things. You are not stagnant—you are evolving. Below are some ways to make 2025 your year and achieve your own "six impossible things."
