The Girl Who Thinks She Can

Today is my sisters last home meet. No invitational this year due to funding! Gotta love it! I have been sick in bed most of the day after my run. I remember a poem my friend Steve sent me. So I edited it for my sister and her meet tonight! Go Get Em Meg!

THE GIRL WHO THINKS SHE CAN

by Waler D. Wintle (edited by me)

IF YOU THINK YOU ARE BEATEN, YOU ARE
IF YOU THINK YOU DARE NOT, YOU DON’T
IF YOU WOULD 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 IN THE WORLD WE FIND,
SUCCESS BEGINS WITH A GIRLS WILL,
ITS ALL IN THE STATE OF MIND
IF YOU THINK YOUR 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 THE FASTER GIRL,
BUT SOONER OR LATER, THE GIRL WHO WINS
IS THE GIRL WHO THINKS SHE CAN.
