The Man Who Thinks He Can

Saw this today on an inter-company publication and just loved it. I've been feeling very philosophical lately and this just fed right into it. Enjoy!

The Man Who Thinks He Can

If 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 fellow’s will;
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you’re 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 one who thinks he can.

— Walter D. Wintle, poet

I LOVE THIS!!!!!

Definately my mantra which I repeat to myself daily...I think I can..I think I can...I think I can...just like the Little Engine That Could. :D

Thanks for posting this.

That's great. If you're feeling philosophical you'd probably enjoy the movie The Secret. I think you can do a search and see it online. It's about the law of attraction. Same type of inspirational thing.

Thanks for sharing.
Awesome!!! :)
