If you
Get discouraged,
Consider this fellow:
He dropped out of grade school.
Ran a country store.
Went broke.
Took fifteen years to pay off his bills.
Unhappy marriage.
Ran for House.
Lost…
Twice.
Delivered a speech that became a classic.
Audience indifferent.
Attacked daily by the press.
Despised and hated by half the country.
Despite all of this,
Imagine
How many people all
Over the world
Have been
Inspired
By this
Awkward,
Rumpled,
Brooding man
Who signed his name
Simply,
A.Lincoln.
"The greatest discovery of our generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. As you think…so shall you be."
William James, The father of American Psychology
