Nothing to Lose
“When a man says I cannot, he has made a suggestion to himself. He has weakened the power of accomplishing that which otherwise would have been accomplished.”
Muhammad Ali
A suggestion that’s kept millions of people stagnant.
“I cannot” signifies a lack of trust within. It’s believing that you don’t have the capabilities to accomplish what’s in front of you.
And what makes you believe that?
Is it failure? Past actions? Someone’s opinion?
Regardless of the source, it’s better to fail after trying than to never try in the first place.
What do you have to lose?
