Don’t Quit

I want to share this poem that has been with me since I was in High School. I hope it will uplift and help you realize also not to give up fighting for whatever you want to do and achieve in life.
Don’t Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit -
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Life is queer with its twist and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won, had he stuck it out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden dawn.
Success is a failure turned inside out -
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near but seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit, -
Its when things seems worst that you mustn’t quit.
Remember this military secrecy always – “Quiter never Wins, Winner never Quit.”
