  • the man who thinks he can.

    If you think you
    are beaten, you are; 
    If you think you dare not, you don't. 
    If you'd like to win, but think you can't 
    It's almost a cinch you won't. 
    If you think you'll lose, you've lost, 
    For out in the world we find 
    Success beings with a fellow's will; 
    It's all in the state of mind. 

    If you think
    you're 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.
