Think I Can: How to Push Yourself to Success
“Because I can” is magic. It pushes us past our comfort zones（舒适区域）. It gives us a reason to do the things that we think we can’t. Here are a few ways to use this positive thinking in your own life.
Be More Active
Whether it is to go home or go to work, climb the stairs instead of taking the lift. Whether it is to go shopping or watch a film, ride a bike instead of driving a car. Break the “I’m tired” or “It is too hard” or “It is too far” cycle. Increasing your activity level will be good for you.
Try Something New
It is easy for us to make excuses for why we shouldn’t try something new. Maybe you think it is out of your comfort zone. Maybe it seems too difficult. Or maybe, it is just inconvenient（不方便的）. Remember that you can try something new. It will help you to move past something bad and discover something new about yourself and possible new interests.
Increase Your Willpower（意志力）
Saying “No” to our favorites can be challenging. However, developing strong willpower, whether it is in response（反应）to our favorite chocolate cake or to over shopping, is something that we can all benefit from. Next time you want to do something you might regret, you have the will power to say “No”.
Speak Up
Often, we meet something that troubles us or makes us unhappy. We have a voice “because I can” in our minds. Talking with your loved ones, such as your parents and friends about how you feel, what you need and what you are thinking about can help you get on well with them and form deeper relationships.
