The man who wins .....

If you think you are beaten, you are; 

If you think you dare not, you don't.

If you like to win, but think you can't

it's almost a cinch you won't! 

*****

If you think you'll lose, you are 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 you rise,

you've got to be sure of yourself before

you can win the prize! 

****

Life is battle 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!
