Inspiration from Dick Beardsley

Here is a poem that Dick finds especially motivational:
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile and you have to sigh
Rest if you must, but don’t ever Quit.

For life is queer with its twists and turns
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many a failure has turned about
When we might have won had we stuck it out
So don’t give up though the pace seems slow
You might 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 you might have captured the victor’s cup
And you learned too late when the night slipped down
How close you were to the golden crown

Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
You can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem the worst
That You Mustn’t Quit
Another fun quote from Dick:
No matter how fast or how slow, when you cross that finish line, it will change your life forever!

Another one of Dick's own favorite sayings and what he tries to do every day:
Every morning when I wake up, I try to wake with a Smile on my face, Enthusiasm in my voice, Joy in my heart and Faith in my soul.
