Do, not do, there is no “try”

The mentor was right.

Failure, the greatest teacher is.

You can tell yourself “I try”

But this is wrong!

Trying, is a copout.

Something you comfort yourself with.

To sugar-coat inaction,

Or insufficient efforts.

What i must say is just "do".

Must do and do and do,

Until it’s done.

Until i have other things to do.

But never "try" again!

“Trying” is a bittersweet sticky trap.

Change my game, I must.

Steel myself,

Bite those cracked lips.

Fortuna may not like me trying,

But i might change her mind,

With doing.

Inspired by wise words i got today.

Hope this year turns things around for us all. If only we do and not try.
