Get Rid of “Try”

There are a lot of words that I would like to use a lot less in my vocabulary. https://open.spotify.com/show/3ZHBhBOd4dfiJHGQeNWkG1?si=qary459HSAKliMdUxfHnqA The one that I chose in this case would be the word “Try.” This is not because the word try is a bad word. Actually, the word try do is motivational as we try new things. I do think that the word Try has the potential to set us up for failure. Why do I say that the word “Try” has the potential to set us up for failure?

I say this because the word Try leaves room for an easy exit when working on a task. I sometimes use that word with reservations where I can quit at any time. I would then have the liberty to say, well at least I tried. I don’t discourage anyone from trying anything new. In fact, I encourage anyone to try new things. Trying new things is what keep us moving forward and adding excitement to our lives. I do think that it’s better for me to approach any task with the mentality that I’m pursuing something or working on something. So today, I’m working to use the word Try a lot less in my vocabulary. I’m officially replacing the word try with the word working (working on).
