Try Your Best

“I do the very best I know, the very best I can, and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.”

Abraham Lincoln

“I do the very best I know, the very best I can, and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.” (Abraham Lincoln)

Doing your best does not imply you have to be the best or better than anyone else. Doing your best is a standard you have for yourself, that will motivate you and inspire you to improve yourself and to be the best you can be.

“The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.” (H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

“Try and fail, but don’t fail to try.” (John Quincy Adams)

“In some cases, trying is better than doing because it indicates that you are attempting things hard enough to fail.” (Criss Jami)

Getting Personal

Have you ever failed to attain a personal goal because you didn’t try hard enough? What was involved? Why didn’t you try harder?
