There is a little difference in people,
but the little difference makes a
big difference. The little difference
is attitude. The big difference is
whether it is positive or negative.
[Clement Stone]
It isn't what you have or who you are, or
where you are or what you are doing that
makes you happy or unhappy. It is what
you think about it.
For example, two people may be in the
same place, doing the same thing;
both may have an equal amount of money
and prestige - and yet, one may be miserable
and the other happy. Why? Because of
different mental attitudes.
[Dale Carnegie]
The greatest discovery of my generation
is that human beings can alter their lives
by altering their attitudes of mind.
[William James]

Give me the heart of a man
More than half beaten, but fearless,
Facing the storm and the night;
Breathless and reeling, but tearless,
Here in the lull of the fight,
I who bow not but before Thee,
God of the Fighting Clan,
Lifting my fists I implore Thee,
Give me the heart of a Man!
What though I live with the winners,
Or perish with those who fall?
Only the cowards are sinners,
Fighting the fight is all.
Strong is my Foe - he advances!
Snapt is my blade, O Lord!
See the proud banners and lances!
Oh, spare me this stub of a sword!
Give me no pity, nor spare me;
Calm not the wrath of my Foe.
See where he beckons to dare me!
Bleeding, half beaten - I go.
Not for the glory of winning,
Not for the fear of the night;
Shunning the battle is sinning -
Oh, spare me the heart to fight!
Red is the mist about me;
Deep is the wound in my side;
"Coward" thou criest to flout me?
O terrible Foe, thou hast lied!
Here with my battle before me,
God of the Fighting Clan,
Grant that the woman who bore me
Suffered to suckle a Man!
[John G. Neihardt]

PERSISTENCE
There is genius and power in persistence.
It conquers all opposers; it gives confidence;
it annihilates obstacles. Everybody believes
in the determined man. People know that
when he understakes a thing, the battle is
half won, for his rule is to accomplish
whatever he sets out to do.
