When in doubt, assume you can do it – whatever it is. Happiness and success arise from having the wisdom to ask the question ‘Is this thing within my power?’ and if it is not, then to leave it be and fully accept – even embrace – it. Or if you decide you do indeed have control over the thing in question, then act and wield that power as wisely as you can. Once we are already on a path of action, it is purely beneficial to assume we can do what we aim to, and purely self-destructive to question one’s ability at all.
