新东方摘取梦想的启明星 13 Choosing words to create success

　　Choosing Words to Create Success

　　Did you know that you can increase your ability to be successful by consciously choosing the right words? It’s true! Let’s say you’re motivated, excited even to create change in your life. You’ve even gone so far as to put your well-formed goals down in writing. From there, you’ve determined your first steps to begin the process of changing your eating habits and exercising more. You’ve got enormous enthusiasm and know exactly what it is you’re going to do. You choose your goal for tomorrow, and then inadvertently cripple your success before you even start. You say, “I’ll try.”

　　What does “I’ll try,” mean? It means you’ve given yourself an out. Should some obstacle surface, you now have a built-in escape route that gets you off the hook. The word presupposes failure. It lacks intention and confidence. You are sowing doubt in your own mind. It says, “All right, I’ll give it a go, but I can’t really see it working out.”
