In Chinese culture modesty is a virtue! Therefore, there are various ways to say "You can do it!" since being boisturous is lesson common in China. There are varying degrees of "You can do it" and you can read about them here:

Nǐ yídìng méi wèntí
你一定没问题

Nǐ 你 means : means "you"
yídìng 定: means "definitely"
méi wèntí 没问题: means "no problem"

Together, Nǐ yídìng méi wèntí means "You can do it!"

Sometimes, you can add 的 (de) at the end of a sentence to strengthen the tone: 

Nǐ yídìng méi wèntí de 
你一定没问题的

To soften the tone, you can use:

Nǐ méi wèntí de
你没问题的
You can do it (but modestly!).
