It's Difficult But Rewarding

To believe... when others are doubting
To work... when others are dreaming
To care... when others are neglecting
To give... when others are grasping
To forgive... when others are condemning
To smile... when others are complaining
To praise... when others are criticizing
To build... when others are destroying
To rise... when others are hesitating
To serve... when others are demanding
To persist... when others are quitting

You Can

If you think you are beaten, you are
If you think you dare not, you don't
If you like to win, but you think can't
It is almost certain, you won't

If you think you'll lose, you're lost
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will
It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are
You've got to think high to rise
You've got to be sure of yourself
Before you can ever win a prize!

Life's battle don't always go
To the stronger or faster man
But soon or late
The man who wins is the man who thinks...
He can.
