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 lose, you're lost;
For out in the 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 go 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 one who wins
Is the one who thinks he can.
