I have noticed in life that you can "try" all you want, and it will make no 
difference whatsoever.  You can either *do* such and such or you can *try*. 
You can never do both.  When you *try*, you are already aware that you are not 
*doing* whatever it is you are *trying* to do.

In the example above, you may *try* to assume the best. In doing so, you are, 
in the same thought, admitting that you are not *really* assuming the best -- 
you are only *trying*.

There is nothing wrong with *trying*, mind you. It just doesn't work.
