The Man Who Thinks He Can

I came across this poem that I feel compelled to share with you. The author is credited as being Walter D Wintle but there is not a lot of information about the him other than he is mentioned in Napoleon Hill’s ‘Think and Grow Rich’

So here it is:

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 is almost a certain – you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost;

For out in this 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 the prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger or faster man;

But sooner or later the man who wins

Is the one who thinks he can!

Best Wishes!
