Think big and your deeds will grow,
Think small and you'll fall behind
Think that you can and you will;
It's all in a state of mind
If you think you are out-classed, 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 sooner or later, the man who wins
Is the fellow who thinks he can!

If you think you're beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you won't;
If you like to win, but don't think you can
It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost;
For out in the world you'll find
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in a state of mind.
For many a game is lost
Ere even a play is run,
And many a coward fails,
Ere even his work is begun.
