Tip of e day: Instead of "try", say "I'll do my best.."

Now, here is a last thought about beliefs. How often have you heard someone rationalize incomplete action by saying, "Well, I tried"? To try is a cop-out. It's an escape hatch. When we promise to do something by saying that we'll try, we're setting ourselves up for failure. Be prepared to put your reputation on the line.

Instead of using that word "try", say "I'll do my best..." Can you feel the difference?
