When I was a kid I would say "I can't do this ". Dad would always reply " There's no such word as can't.
Then he would always reply "If first you don't succeed try, try, try, and try again.
Words I was brought up on and I am very grateful for the life lessons he taught me.
My dad would say " if at first you don't succeed, you're about average"

Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.
