DON’T QUIT

Never let failure deter you from living your dreams. The final stanza of the poem, ‘Don’t Quit’, goes thus:

Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Consider these words from ordinary men and women who became great because they didn’t quit going, even when the going got tough:

“You never really lose until you quit trying.”
-Mike Ditka (NFL Football coach)

“If we did all the things we were capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves”
-Thomas Edison

“The human spirit can not be paralyzed. If you’re breathing, you can dream.
-Mike Brown

“In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.”
-Albert Einstein.

“When you believe you can- you can!”
-Maxwell Maltz

So its up to you not to quit.
It’s up to you not to give up,
One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.
One smile begins a friendship,
One handclasp lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One word can frame the goal.
One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room.
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will conquer gloom.
One step must start each journey,
One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,
One touch can show you care.
One voice can speak with wisdom,
One heart can know what’s true.
One life can make the difference,
You see, it’s up to you!
-Author unknown

In the final analysis, dear friend,
“The only way you can get ahead is to fail early,
fail often, and fail forward”.
-John C Maxwell.
