If you think you are beaten, you are,

  If you think you dare not, you don’t.

  If you’d like to win, but think you can’t

  It’s almost a cinch you won’t.

  If you think you’ll loose, you’ve lost,

  Far out in the world we find

  Success begins with a fellow’s wills

  It’s all in state of mind.

  If you think you’re out classed, you are,

  You’ve got to be sure of yourself before

  You can ever win a prize.

  Life’s battle don’t always go

  To the stronger or faster man,

  But soon or late the man who wins

  Is the one who thinks he can.
