29-Day Giving Challenge

My gift to myself and others around me is eliminating the word "TRYING", from my life. When I use the word try, I never end up doing what I said I was going to try to do. So my gift will be to my family and friends either I will or I won't but no more try. It's more like making sure that what I'm being asked to do is something that fits who I am and who I'm becoming. It will mean taking more chances but living a life that I want, not what others expect from me.

I say all the time , well I'll try to make it out, or I'll try to quit smoking, swearing etc, but really I have no desire to, so the "trying" is not being fair to anyone!

That's the gift I'm giving to myself and those around me.
