Thinking

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 soon or late the man who wins
Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!

–Dr. Walter D. Wintle

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. –Martin Luther King Jr.

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.
–William Shakespeare

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”

Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value. –Albert Einstein

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.  –Winston Churchill

“Success doesn’t come to you?  You go to it.”  –Marva Collins

“You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.
–Henry David Thoreau

Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve! –Andrew Carnegie
