Try and try again

You can Do It
Write a couple sentences today about something you didn't think you could do but did anyway. Tell me how you felt afterwards.

example: I did not think I could ever learn to line dance but I bought a video and practiced and now I can. I feel proud of myself because I really wanted to learn this and it is so fun.
