Thinking – Bible study

If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you dont.
If youd like to win, but think you cant
Its almost a cinch you wont.

If you think youll lose, youve lost,
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellows will;
Its all in the state of mind.

If you think youre outclassed, you are,
Youve got to think high to rise.
Youve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Lifes battles dont always go
To the stronger or fastest man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one who thinks he can.
