The “Down”
Game
There is a game in life, called “Down.” If you play it, you will lose.
I don’t play the “Down” game.
When I am told, I will lose, I say, I will win!
When I am told I can’t succeed, I say, I will.
If I am told to stop! I proceed, I persevere!
When I am confronted with difficulties, I endure.
I won’t play this game of control!
I don't back down, and I don't stand down.
I won’t bow down for anyone.
I won’t play the “Down” game!
I am prepared to win, and not for shame.
Regardless of what we do in life, we must be willing to stay
focused on our goals. Great achievers persevere in spite of the challenges they
face. Oftentimes they stand alone, not by choice, but by the spirit of
endurance and perseverance within themselves; that refuse to stand down, when
the odds are against them, and when others have given up on them.
