Practice saying the words “I can do it!” over and over.
Write them on sticky notes, and then post them on your mirror, your computer screen, and your car dash.
Read them many times a day, maybe even 100 times. Push them deep into your mind and use them as a powerful affirmation that you will succeed with your plan.
