Don't just try.

By -

There's like on the down low a million articles, quotes, songs or poetry that's encouraging trial. Encouraging you to go against odds and just TRY.

But let's jog for a minute, say you try tried to run faster but still lost the race, basically anything you try and fail. What does it matter?
I'm not saying it's not good that you tried, wait, that's precisely what I'm saying.
Trial is the definite equal to inadequacy.and no, not enough just won't do.
Now turn the brightness up and let me tell you why you failed,at least majorly why. Quite simple really: you failed because to you,it was just an attempt, you didn't want it enough, you were just TRYING.

See, trial comes with it the comfort of it's aight if you do not succeed, that it's normal to fail. That's why I'm proclaiming myself, blasphemize if you'll let me coin, the anti-try.

That's why it's easy for people to go round doing so many random things wrong without feeling bad about it, trying to date everyone and moving on like it didn't mean anything, failing at so many things in such a short span. And yet, being able to sleep just fine non-the less, without evaluating what's wrong, what they should do better, what they shouldn't do next time. Because they were JUST TRYING.

Don't get me wrong either, you're not going to succeed in all your endeavors. And there's absolutely no fault in failure.
See, if you want something bad enough, you have to more than try, you DO IT. You go for it like you want it. Without failure on your mind. And that's the kind of positivity that will get you across.
Remember, it's okay if you do not succeed, and it's alright to feel bad about it. Because you did it. Maybe you didn't do it right, maybe you didn't do it enough. But you DID IT.

DO IT or Go Home.

Let's go back to the Basics.

Abused by love.

The question usually is why I called my blog Basics. The answer is rather simple, the things I talk about are things we already know about, they're basic. All I do is provide a little retrospect and sometimes different perspective. I discovered that we know so much, but knowing only implies understanding, it does not mean it. What I'm going to be writing about below are things you know, and I'm sorry about the monotony but as you read this, it's of import that you pay attention; that you understand. So recently, one of the most urban and gorgeous person I know was abused, and talking to her I kept realizing that it's not that she didn't know, it's not naivety that gets people abused. It really isn't. As children of God, I find that humans, like their father, are very judgemental. And sitting in the seat of the judge means you feel pure, exempt from the happenings of those you judge. We convince ourselves that we would handle things better if ...

The Art of Gifting

I intended to write about this way early into last year because of how shit the gifts I received that year was, but life comes at you so fast I hadn’t gotten time to research and do the yadayada before writing an article such as this. But then I met someone that reignited that spark only this time it was different, the complete opposite. They gifted me with sequences that were the most thoughtful gifts ever, and I mean ever. But then it occurred to me that it was much more than the thoughtfulness of the gifts and thus we are here to explore gifting a little more. I am overflowing with emotion over those gifts as I write this; Before we delve into it, love languages are meant to be independent as well as integrated and as such, this article is not meant for gifters and lovers that only understand love in gifting rather this is an article for you if you intend to express a little more love into the world, to your loved ones, to your victims. You see dear reader, gifts aren...

Expectations

The most prevalent wrong advice I've heard is 'don't have expectations and you won't get hurt.' and while I would see where that comes from, I just go whotf. So I have two problems with this advice, one is "you won't get hurt?" And you people actually believe that,? How much longer are we going to deny the fact that like happiness, hurt and pain is what life is? I mean, don't you want character development? Ha. And two is "don't have expectations?" What? (You gotta say the "what" like @stacythiru does) So, you just get what you get and that's it? You don't get to yearn for more and better? That's bullshit if you ask me.  Basically, this is me telling you the thing about expectations. One, most expectations are natural. It's what's expected. Like you getting good grades, you might get told that you have to over and over, but you already know you have to. No one sits down and writes things they ...
