(If this is your first time on this site, please begin with "Are You Prepared For Success?" [Introduction])
It's All In The State Of Mind
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 certain you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost.
For out in the world you'll find
Success begins with a woman's will-
It's all in the state of mind.
Full many a race is lost
Ere even a step is run,
And many a coward falls
Ere even her work's begun.
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 the 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 woman;
But sooner or later the woman who wins
Is the woman who thinks she can.

Hey Mel,
Well, I must say that: I am a woman, I am quite sure of myself, and nothing can bring me down!!!!
Here in Portugal, my high self-esteem, my self-confidence, my strength and assertive behaviour intimidate people...but do I care? NOPE...as long as I keep winning....
Great post!
Cheers!
Hi Max,
After getting to know you, at least in print, you should be the poster child for the "after" picture of what my site is all about.
You go girl...there is nothing that will stop you!!
