The Man Who Thinks He Can by Walter D. Wintle
given to me by former Springton Lake Middle School teacher, John Dixon, on Parent Visitation Day, Nov. 2008

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 man who thinks he can.

The spreadsheet did not happen yet. But, I want to add that this mentoring group is going to focus on high-school age through young adults. I have heard too many people in this age group express that they're already discouraged because they "missed the boat," "did not study the right thing," "have waited too long to decide what to do..." and it goes on. I'll be 57 in 11 days, and I want to tell them, "It's NEVER too late as long as you have life and breath in you."

"We have seen too much defeatism, too much pessimism, too much of a negative approach. The answer is simple: If you want something very badly, you can achieve it. It may take patience, very hard work, a real struggle, and a long time; but it can be done...faith is a prerequisite of any undertaking...

This week, the task connected with my goal is to create a spreadsheet with things I need help with in order to get this program started. Look for it by the end of the week. One of these will be the citizens referred to in the quote below!(Editor's Note: Because I've been a teacher of grammar, the comma after "committed" is not correct!)

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.
