You don't know until you try

There is something I say a lot, to many people, and for some reason I just heard myself say it. I mean, I really got how much I live by the words, "There's only one way to find out". Those words have replaced "I've never done it before", "I don't know how", "I'm not sure if I can" and "I can't/ I don't have the experience".

Do you know how many jobs I've quit because I didn't think I could live up to the expectations of the position I held or position I was about to be promoted to??

EVERY ONE of my jobs!! Ok, well not KFC and Bugle Boy, but every job after High School ;).

Anyway, I heard myself say "There's only one way to find out" and it knocked me on my A$$! It's a good thing I was already squatting down and my A$$ was only 3 inches from the ground when I fell...

But I got all of this in that moment. How I've stepped up to life's opportunities without any considerations of how I'm going to accomplish something, but rather a certainty of I won't know until I've tried it. In this, I've had the opportunity of amazing myself in the things I'm capable of :).
