You never know what you can do until you try. The only true failure I have ever seen is the one who was afraid to TRY.
We tend to dwell on what we are not,
And fail to notice that which we've got.
You've talents and skills that you haven't tried,
Abilities that others have tried to belie;
Skills and strengths, imagination,
Creativeness, determination,
So many reasons to believe,
That we can actually achieve,
The things of which we've always dreamed,
Those things are closer than they seem.
In fact it's practically guaranteed,
You have it in you to succeed.
Preparation is the key.
Don't try to grasp all that you see.
One goal at a time, don't be in a hurry,
And you can avoid un-needed worry.
It's a lot of hard work and you'll feel like a drone;
But you just keep on keepin' on.
