How To Do Great Things
to do great things you will more than strength
you will also need perseverance
for few things are impossible to accomplish
with just some skill and some diligence
as many of the important things in this world
have been accomplished by those
who would not stop
they possessed a sense of hope and
a spirit of determination
in order to reach their mountain top
some problems can be solved with
a little bit of creativity
but anything can be overcome
if you possess a positive mentality
to accomplish great things
you don't just act
you must also have a dream
don't just make plans
perceive it and believe it
and then you will achieve
don't look outside yourself for strength
learn to look within your own heart
with belief in yourself
and faith in your abilities
you will have made a very good start
don't follow a path
take the road less travelled
and instead leave a trail
learn from yesterday
live for today
and hope for tomorrow
that you will prevail
possess courage, inspiration
motivation and inner strength
be optimistic, persevere
and determined to go to any length
that's how to do great things
