When that happens to me, I use the following inspirational words for women: "You can do this."

For example, I have physical weaknesses that make it hard for me to maintain my balance.
When I am trying to go up, or especially down a street curb, I fortify myself

Always reinforce success when you try something difficult and find you can do it.
It will then be easier the next time.
