You Can If You Think You Can

From Dan Bird's morning meeting on The Winning Mentality:

You Can If You Think You Can
A poem by C. W. Longenecker

If you think you are beaten, you are,
If you think you dare not, you don't
If you like to win, but you think you can't,
If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out in the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow's mind.

If you think you are outclassed, 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 soon or late the man who wins,
Is the man who thinks he can.
