Do You Try or Do?

When you set out to accomplish a new goal do you tell yourself I will try to do this?


If you do then you are in the majority. That's not always a good thing because mentally try means I will do it if I can and that means you can accept not being able. Most will not try again after failure or they will try again but expect the same results until they give up on trying.

A person with a Do or Will Do attitude is more apt to achieve success.

Don't worry you can reprogram your mind. My best tip is to pick up a copy of Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" and any other publication on the laws of attraction. You should also listen in depth to Tony Robins and Jim Rohn as they all help you go from a Try to Will Do attitude and think like a successful person.

You will be surprised, it is easier to change that mindset than you think because as babies we had that will do attitude or we would never have learned to walk, talk, use the big potty etc.. We even apply it in a daily work environment when we meet deadlines all the time and don't have an option for failure. We just don't seem to have that same faith in our ability when we do unknown things like start a business. Try is an excuse waiting to happen.

Thanks for your time, Do find success.

Amen to that!!!?

Interesting post, I can see how I wane between the 2 for sure. I currently work in a print shop and most of my printing jobs are time sensitive. This industry industry is a fast pace and regularlly changes at a drop of a hat. Sometimes I have too many jobs for the amount of available time. Not completing them is not an option, I don't always know how but I manage to get done. I is the "I will" for sure. Then I adopt the "I can" in my personal life. Very interesting, something I never thought of before. Thanks for sharing, I am going to monitor my thought process a little more carefully.

It's very easy to fall into the I can or I'll try category because we look to home to relieve stress and we have freedom in our business to choose when to work and for how long so we tend to procrastinate but we need to give it the same or more effort than our work hours because it is that drive and commitment from employees that make your boss a success.

Great post. Intend to succeed and you will. :)

I always set out to DO something, we all need to get back in touch with our inner long-lost child Andy.

Yes, he was a fun little bugger wasn't he? We need to grow like a kid, think like a millionaire, and be passionate about both.

Excellent comment you make.

With ll we have going for us here at WA, the only way we fail is if we have negative thoughts about trying to so something!

Agreed. With Wealthy Affiliate, we have the support of friends, the vessel to move, and the roadmap to any place we want to go we just have to choose the destination.

Always be a doer and succeed

good post, Andy. You're right failure is not an option!

As Jim Rohn says, The only way you can change your tomorrow is to change you".

Great post Andy,

A do or will do attitude is what we all need!

Hey Andy,
Thanks for the post. It really drives home the point that your
mindset is a vital part of your makeup. A positive attitude is
significant to the degree that a negative outcome could result
if any possibility exists that an individual is on the fence. In a
critical situation, it is imperative that the correct decision is
made immediately to prevent avoidable accidents from
happening. Especially, if someone is in a leadership role, the
results could be disastrous when others could be impacted
if the correct decision is not made in a timely manner. Very
good information on a very important subject.

Cheers,
Ken

Exactly. In management we could never be undecided, we either took an action and learned from mistakes or triumphed and gained experience but there was never anything we could just try on, it was, do or let down the people we served.

Hey Andy,
Again, important message. Thanks so much for the like.

Cheers,
Ken

Thanks again.
Ken
