OfflineDon'Quit!
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, If you must-but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow-
You might succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victory cup.
And he learned to late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt-
And you never can tell how close you are,
It might be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't QUIT!!!!

Everytime you repeat the words "I CAN DO IT" with conviction, you cancel or override your fear and increase your confidence. By repeating this affirmation over and over, you can eventually build your courage and confidence to the point where you are unafraid. -Brian Tracy-

That is the one thing everyone should hear. Nothing ever goes exactly according to plan. The difference between success and failure is usually just the fact that people succeed work through their challenges until they succeed. Success is not the absence of failure, it is learning from it.
This poem have been hanging over my bed for the past ten years and I refuse to take it down. Every time I enter my room, it reminds me that, "I Must Not Quit." Great poem, thanks for sharing. God Bless.

Gary, great quote from a great man. If my mind serves me right, he was one of three authors from the book, "Souls of Black Folks." Very inspirational reading. God Bless.

This poem used to be on a friend's fridge when we were kids. I've thought about it during the years but couldn't remember the whole poem. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to print this one.
