A man who thinks he can

Another poem by Walter D. Wintle which is very motivating and peps me up when I am in my low gloomy days :)

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you'd like to win but you think you can't,
It's almost a cinch you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out of the world we find
Success begins 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 battle doesn't always go
To stronger or faster men;
But sooner or later the man who wins,
Is the one who thinks he can.

-- Walter D. Wintle

I guess mood swings are part of life but a constant effort should be put in to shake the comfort level to reduce the gloomy days.
The reason this post comes today(wednesday) is I am pepped up and my usual cheerful self after fighting 2 bad days.The week started really bad with an accident ,then home front and commuting was completely haywire with maid and cooks on off(how dependant we r on them..Gosh..!!!),car gone for repair,no time for workout :everything was depressing but I fought all that gloominess today morning by getting up early followed by a good 40 mins workout.I was able to reduce that time duration of low mood....!!!!
