Pretty disappointed in OP for cropping out the author.

Memes aside, trying is more than 'not trying'. Some progress is better than no progress.

This is not inherently true. There situations where trying without giving your best leads to a worse situation.

If you want to focus on only self-improvement then you may have a point.

Not legal advice but never say, especially in written format that you will do or try your best. Say "I'm trying/doing a reasonable effort." ;)
