The true power of Possibility is in replacing the word BUT with the word AND.

Example:

BUT: I want to do X, BUT I don’t have Y.
AND: I want to do X, AND I don’t have Y.

The use of the word BUT negates the previous state/statement. The use of the word AND acknowledges that both states/statements are true. The key difference is that the word AND creates an opportunity for Possibility, whereas the word BUT prevents even the possibility of creating an opportunity for Possibility to exist.
