“To try is to fail”. That is a statement I say often in response to when I hear someone refer to trying, before attempting to accomplish something. Trying highlights and accepts failure. Trying and success are never present in the same moment. Failure will always be experienced on the road to success; success will never be acquired when one is focused on failure.
“The primary function of the subconscious mind is to follow the instructions of the conscious mind. It does this by “proving” whatever the conscious mind believes is true. In other words, the job of the subconscious mind is to prove the conscious mind is always “right.” So, if you consciously believe that you can’t be, do, or have something, the subconscious will create the circumstances and find the people to prove that you are ‘right’.” — Robert Anthony
When the concept of trying is entertained in the realm of thought, the acceptance of failure is not only acknowledged but acquired. We allow the subconscious to find ways for us to have the outcome to have tried. All successful attempts are accomplished; all failed attempts are tried.
When we separate from the result and commit to having things turn out, rather than how it works out, we will detach from the concept of trying and attach to always finding a way to get what we want done. Speak to the future you want to create and have fun in knowing it will all turn out.

Believing you can do something is half the battle! But how do you convince yourself that you CAN do something in the face of evidence (real or perceived) to the contrary? How do you believe without evidence? Is it enough to know that believing is the first step? How can I get myself to stop “trying” and confidently state that I “will” do something?
A concept conceived becomes a concept believed. When you believe in yourself you realize most things you will accomplish you have never done. Evidence from others serves us as tools of reference but are not necessary in getting anything done. To tell yourself you will try you have introduced an avenue of failure. Tell yourself “I will”, you will only find the evidence to support you!

Great post. To try is to fail, to do is to succeed. Words to live by…
