But Not You

Balance Your Life
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some 5 balls in the air.
You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit.
And you are keeping all of these in the air.
You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.
If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four balls - family, friends, health and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these,
they will be irrevocably scuffed or damaged or even shattered.
They will be never the same.
You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.

You Can Do It
If you think you are beated, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don’t.
If you’d like to win, But you think you can’t,
It’s almost sure you won’t!
If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost.
For out in the world you find success begins with the will,
Its all in the state of mind.
If you think you’re outclassed, you are.
You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to think of yourself
Before you can ever win the prize!
If you don’t try the race is lost, Before even a step is run.
Think big and your deeds will grow,
Think small and you’ll fall behind,
Think that you can and you will,
It’s all in the state of mind!
Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster man.
But sooner or late the who wins,
is the one who thinks he can!
If you think you dare not, you don’t.
If you’d like to win, But you think you can’t,

Think small and you’ll fall behind,
Think that you can and you will,
It’s all in the state of mind!
Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster man.
But sooner or late the who wins,
is the one who thinks he can!

I Will Do More
I will do more than belong

I will do more than believe

I will do more than forgive
....I will forget.
I will do more than teach
....I will inspire.
I will do more than care
....I will help.
I will do more than dream
....I will work.
I will do more than give
....I will serve.

When Life Pushes You Down
When life pushes you down, push back!
That’s what you’re here for.
You’re capable, you’re creative,
you’re full of life and energy.
You have what it takes to move yourself forward
around any obstacle.
Don’t let anything stop you.
Take strength from meeting the challenges,
and move ahead.
The struggles you face are just what you need
to fulfill your potential for greatness.
A year from now,
when you look back at today,
you’ll see that the problem
you’re so concerned with right now,
was another valuable lesson waiting to be learned.

The Measure Of Life
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human, and
enough hope to make you happy.
The happiest of people don’t necessarily
have the best of everything;
They just make the most of
everything that comes along their way.
The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past;
You can’t go forward in life until
you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
Don’t count the years - count the memories....
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away!
