“People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.”

A. A. Milne

Simplified Meaning:

This quote means that even though people often say anything can be done if you try hard enough, it can feel like some days you are not doing anything at all. Think about a lazy Sunday when you stay in bed, watch TV, and don't accomplish any big tasks. It seems like you are doing nothing, but you are still living and experiencing time. So, while the idea is that nothing is impossible if you set your mind to it, this quote humorously points out that doing "nothing" is quite possible and sometimes very enjoyable. Applying this to your life, it's important to remember that it's okay to relax and take breaks. Sometimes, doing nothing can help you recharge and be more productive later.
