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 you can’t,
It is almost certain you won’t.
If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost,
For out of 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 battles don’t always go,
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins,
Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!

Another poem i found when reading “Think and Grow Rich“. Have i successfully tempted you to buy the book? I hope I did. Because it’s definitely worth it.
Love it ^^ nice poem.
But seriously sometimes I hate to think and ‘be sure of myself’ ~~
hahaha…..think we both need to start loving the art of thinking and ‘be sure of ourselves’ if we wanna reach our goals….hehe….and of course, not to become too addicted with both the arts until we think too much and never get things started or done and become obnoxious because we’re too sure of ourselves… :-p
lol that’s why, sometimes I even hate to find the balance between ‘think’ and ‘do’.
At this stage I just hope I can get as much information as I can, and implement them as soon as possible. I guess the whole process does require some level of ‘thinking’, so that would just settle for me ;p
