THINK

Spent some quality time with my family last Sunday at the China Square Flea Market. Yup, we rented a stall to sell our new, un-used stuff, as well as PRE-LOVED (a more pleasant word for "garang guni a.k.a 2nd hand") items. Also a chance to hone our sales techniques and marketing skills... not to mention the sense of satisfaction at the end of the day (the same feeling of closing a sale). We attracted quite a bit of crowd and browsers, more so than our neighbours, and even bumped into Danny and Evon. Danny bought me this poster titled "THINK" which I've put up in the office. Here's what it says:

THINK
If you think you are beaten, you are,

If you think you dare not, you don't.

If you like to win, but you think you can't,

It is almost certain 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 or faster man.

But soon or late the man who wins,

Is the man who thinks he can.

~ C. W. Longenecker ~

Thanks, Danny. I hope it serves as great an inspirational purpose for you as it has for me... and probably for the rest of the family who is reading this.
