One of the most important lessons we can learn in our early childhood is the concept of confidence.
This idea can be seen in the popular children's book: Thomas the Train. In this story Thomas is faced with a great challenge: climbing up a hill.
When Thomas initially tries going up the hill he struggles to get up.
At some point or another he believes that he won't be able to make it up, but after telling himself that he can, he's able to accomplish his goal.
This simple story has the basis of one of my major philosophies.
In order to accomplish something, you must first think that you can do it, otherwise you'll go nowhere.
After thinking that you can do it, you must try it because just thinking about the task at hand will only take you so far.
Therefore, it's only after you try something that you can begin to build the confidence you need in order to accomplish something greater.
