DO YOU?

Do you go quietly into the deep, dark abyss of unrealized potential and dreams, unrecognized goals and visions, unsung hymns of victory and success?

Do you stand meekly in the face of a tumultuous storm, cowering beneath the humble guise of patience and waiting, sinking in sedentary complacency tinged with hopelessness, settling for whatever circumstances happen to come your way?

Do you simply give up on the eve of a battle, declaring defeat before the first strike is ever made, waving your white flag and digging your own grave, surrendering your will to succeed in the very fight of your life?

Do you receive the negative report of your worst enemies, believing what they say, even when it goes against your faith.

Do you co-sign your own death certificate and abort your destiny, because instead of standing strong, you make the choice to succumb.?

Do you walk with the short, staggering stride of a quitter? Take apparent defeats in life as they come your way and say appeasing and comforting words to your own ego, instead of using the opportunity to strengthen and grow?

Do you recede when the worst circumstances come after you, do you curl up in intimidation when a certain authority stands over you, do you sit down in the gallows when it's time to rise up and claim your throne?

Do you rehearse your past failures, restating those things which seem impossible?

Winners don't quit, they do the opposite.T hey fall down and bounce back and make the most if it. They take blows, roll with punches, and never give up a in a fight until the battle is over, and it's not over if you're still alive...

Winners don't settle for a life of defeat,they can't see it, they won't claim it, and they only visualize victory. They don't lie back, they assert themselves, because in life it pays to seize. Every opportunity for success, and do whatever is necessary to succeed.

Winners don't back down in tough circumstances,they stand up for themselves, and then they learn to take chances. They push forward with all their willpower and rehearse many fighters' stances. They ask questions, but they never accept negative answers.

Winners don't get any rest, because to rest during a battle is to guarantee certain death. They work hard, they pray harder, and they keep their faith in motion, because closed mouths don't get fed, and prayer keeps your mouth open.
