Believe and Go

Believe and Go is my personal philosophy and I am sure there are many phrases that are similar.  So maybe a short explanation or expansion of its meaning to me is appropriate.

The first part of the phrase “Believe” is a mindset that is needed to be successful, and is something to be practiced.  Children have this mindset early in life, but we stop them from believing by telling them they can’t do something.  Quoting a Disney movie here, but it is appropriate: “Believe you can, then you will.” — Mulan (Princess Stories).  I can add to this with “Believe you can’t, and you won’t.”   So, start believing you can.

The second part of the phrase is “Go” and is centered around getting started because if you don’t start you can’t finish.  No Disney movie quote here so just “Go!”
