    The issue with "trying" is that it gives you a mental "out."

    If you're going to do something, go at it full throttle or you are just wasting your time.

      Failure is usually the first step toward success -- if you are smart enough to learn from it.

              he'd fail and then blame it on some black flag government operation followed by a youtube video of some batshit crazy nutjob saying the cia monitors you through your oven

                        one of my favourite quotes/mantras is from Yoda: do or do not [there is no try]

                        ofc, you then have the things that you *do* have to try before deciding whether you will do them or not, but once I've actually made the decision, the 'do or do not' mindset kicks in with full effect.

                                  I think we should all give up trying now, so none of us fail. That way, we all win!
