Do your best

I was debating between, "you can do it" and "do your best" for the title in the end I figured there is a reason why it is said to do your best. There are things that we just cannot do but doing your best is something everyone can.

In spite of your circumstances, time and place you can do your best at whatever it is you are doing and great satisfaction comes with it too. Some will make excuses to not even try, 'If only I was there instead' or 'If only I had....' or 'If only I was.....' 'Then definitely I would do my best.'

Reality is you are not, you don't have and looking over the fence as you make these excuses is not helping now. What you need to do right now is the best that you can now. It is not to forget but to work hard with a goal that you hope to achieve and should you achieve it what great satisfaction there will be.

It is also reality that not all things go as we planned but if they all did we would probably not have fireworks, microwaves or post-it notes. Below are a few quotes on doing your best.

“It’s good to remember that success may be just beyond the next failure, and you’ll get there, not because you’re destined to, but because you’re determined to.”
― Steve Goodier

“Don't be afraid to try, because you never look back on life and smile at what you could have attempted. Joy only brightens your countenance over those things you did attempt.”
― Richelle E. Goodrich

“Sometimes doing your best is not good enough. Sometimes you must do what is required.”
― Winston Churchill
