CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Carter G. Woodson, considered the 'Father of Black History, once said “No man knows what he can do until he tries.” Many of us talk ourselves out of great ideas because we believe we are incapable of carrying them out. You will never know the power within you to conquer unless you place effort into making the desire a reality.
Not trying is like preparing for a boxing match but never getting in the ring because you have convinced yourself you simply won't win. If you don't try how will you ever know what you are capable of?
Not trying will leave you haunted by the ghosts of would've, could've, and should've -- it's time to send those ghosts back to the grave and put your ability to work.
