So many successful and influential people, from all over, have talked about the fact that believing in yourself is the most important step in achieving your goals. Ford said, “If you believe you can, or you can’t, you are RIGHT!”
Imagine a simplistic analogy: A baby’s first steps. At first, walking and taking steps is a complete unknown, scary, unthinkable. Then, a parent encourages them, shows them they believe they can do it, and because the child trusts the parent, they believe too, and they try. And what happens? Do they succeed on their first try? No, they fall down – they fail. But then what? Does that child forever sit on the ground? Never to walk? No. Failure, even repeated failure doesn’t mean you will never reach your goal. It simply makes the attainment that much sweeter. So, “don’t be a baby!” Try, fail, try, fail… and when you succeed – triumphantly announce, “I knew I could do it all along!”
