A Glance At Life

Take a look back
Back at your life
Half a decade ago 
Are there any changes? 
If not, reevaluate your strategy 
If yes, keep pressing forward 

Do you think the sky is your limit? 
Thinking that is mediocrity 
Believe there's something above the sky
What if the heaven is achievable 
Then the sky isn't your limit
Is a step to zenith

Have you thought about success? 
What is your goal in life?
Do you have a purpose?
If not, chicken mentality is subject to riddance 
If yes, eagle mentality is a path of refulgence 

Do you worry about failure? 
Yes, everybody does
But it's nothing but our inability to try 
Face everything and rise 
You're a winner 

Are you a pessimist? 
Don't choose to be an agent of negativity 
Difficulty in opportunity is your objective 
You're blinded by imbecility over reality 
Look ahead, optimist rule
Be optimistic
