Shivam Sethia's Key Ideas from You Can Win
by Shiv Khera

To laugh often and love much;

To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children;

To earn the approval of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

To appreciate beauty;

To find the best in others;

To give of one’s self without the slightest thought of return;

To have accomplish a task, whether a healthy child, a rescued soul, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;

To have played and laughed with Enthusiasm and sung with exaltation;

To know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived;

This is to have succeeded.

If you think you are beaten, you are.

If you think you dare not, you don’t!

If you 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 are outclassed, you are,

You’ve got to think high to rise,

You’ve got to be sure of yourself before

You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger and faster man,

But sooner or later the man who wins

Is the man who thinks he can.
