If You Think..

Great verses from a self-improvement master.


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,
It is almost certain 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 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!

Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill

She looked at me as if anticipating some answers. I needed a reply quickly and told her we'd wash up the dishes later. My point is that we are all so used to rushing through life that it is impossible for us to sit back, relax and savour our meal. The sad thing is that the only one who noticed was the person who cooked the meal. Everyone else just looked at her with a quizzical look.

Maria Duval on Astral Projection

We are in a fast paced world now - where we eat in a hurry, sleep in a hurry, and wake up in a hurry and rush to work in a hurry. Amidst all this frenzy, little do we care about our physical well being and mental well being?

Like they say the face is the index of the mind, we fail to understand that our aging and dull faces just mean that our mind is tired. Only when our own doctors and physicians tell us to get on to some relaxation techniques, do we realize that we have been ignoring the most important organ of our body - the mind.
