Should you really try?

Blessing to all of you and a Happy Wednesday ❤️

What do you think is worse, to fail completely in something you tried (not something life threatening) or to have never tried it?

Great question....definitely worse not to try at all. If you don't try, you have already lost the possibility of what if....

Good point about having already lost the possibility!

@amiablePeace77 I prefer to try. If I fail I can even try again.

@amiablePeace77 You asked what is worse. I think greenYard meant it the other way around.

@greenYard2803 @cloudySummer

Oh dear, reading it again now I realize that I misunderstood and I so agree to never trying is worse! When we never try we lost 100 %. When we try chances are 50/50.

Special thanks to cloudySummer for making me observe of that misread!

Depends what. I think they are certainly situations why it's best to skip trying.

Wowzers this could go both ways in my mind-lol

I always preach to my kiddos that if they never truly try-then they can not whine and moan on anything. ❤️

Agreed Avo, if you don't try you never know what you might have achieved.

No matter what your age is, learning something new is not only fun, it can also be good for you in many ways (increasing self esteem or self confidence just to mention 2 examples)

@amiablePeace77


Wow, this question spoke to me, thanks for posting. I try to tell myself to remember that as long as I’m trying, I am not failing. For me, I feel I’m failing myself when I don’t try at all. Thanks for the reminder ❤️

I agree MindfulListener82, as long as we keep trying we do not fail, Thomas Edison showed it in many ways.
