"Try"

When I checked in with a friend to see if she was affirming her self-love in the mirror on a daily basis, she said she was, "trying."
What happens when you try?  Often times, you succeed, but plenty of other times, you give up!  I try to do my pushups on my feet, but often drop to my knees.  What do you try to do?

When you have a goal, a vision, a plan and you have a commitment, you succeed!  To me, the word try leaves too much space for me to quit.  
Use the word intend and visualize your outcome before you begin.  It truly is magical.
