It takes a little courage, and a little self ....
control.
And some grim determination,
If you want to reach the goal
It takes a deal of striving, and a firm and stern-set chin.
No matter what the battle, If you really want to win. There's no easy path to glory
There's no road to fame. Life, however we may view it
Is no simple parlor game; But it's prizes call for fighting
For endurance and for grit
For a rugged disposition and don't know when to quit.

Reach down inside to the heart of your happiness And break down the walls that are holding you back- Walls of fear, the familiarity of failure- They will certainly crumble if you attack.
