‘Everything must be possible,” Bach said, according to his pupil Johann Philipp Kirnberger.
Bach created an extraordinary range of compositions from the Brandenburg Concertos to his cello suites, from the Goldberg Variations to Mass in B minor.
“Possible” is both a mindset and an action. It is a belief and a manta. “Possible” is always the first step we must take when attempting something new or contemplating a big goal. Without “possible” everything is impossible.
What if you said Bach’s words to yourself? What might you do if you believed, “everything is possible.”

Hello On Emotions readers! I wanted to let you know I’ll be migrating this site over to Substack soon, which is a better platform to write and to publish a site like On Emotions. I’ll let you know exactly when it happens. All that will change is your email will come from Substack and not WordPress. Thanks!
