you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;
If you'd like to win, but think you can't
It's almost a cinch you won't,
If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellows WILL-
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you're out outclassed, you are;
You've got to think high to rise.
You've just got-to-be sure of yourself
Before you can win the prize.
Life battles don't always go
To the strongest or faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one who THINKS HE CAN

you cannot run away from a weakness; you must sometime fight it out or parish. And if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?? -Robert Louis Stevenson
