The 10% Target

This thing is for attempting something at least 10 times. Because this is 100% percent sure that you will succeed at least 1 time. Because at that 1 time, you either get what you want or you get something you never thought available. 

In those 10 times, you might fail 9 times but that is what makes you harder. Failing 90% of the times gives to two things: You get comfortable with failure, The resilience and skill to be comfortable.
