There will always be something to do, my boy;
There will always be wrongs to right;
There will always be need for a manly breed
And men unafraid to fight.
There will always be honor to guard, my boy;
There will always be hills to climb,
And tasks to do, and battles new
From now till the end of time.
There will always be dangers to face, my boy;
There will always be goals to take;
Men shall be tried, when the roads divide,
And proved by the choice they make.
There will always be burdens to bear, my boy;
There will always be need to pray;
There will always be tears through the future years,
As loved ones are borne away.
There will always be God to serve, my boy,
And always the Flag above;
They shall call to you until life is through
For courage and strength and love.
So these are things that I dream, my boy,
And have dreamed since your life began:
That whatever befalls, when the old world calls,
It shall find you a sturdy man.
_Edgar A. Guest._
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE SOMETHING TO DO..!
CONCENTRATION = SUCCESS
One of the essential requisites to success is concentration. A man may have the most dazzling talents, but if his energies are scattered he will accomplish nothing.
Emerson says: 'A man is like a bit of Labrador spar, which has no luster as you turn it in your hand, until you come to a particular angle; then it shows deep and beautiful colors.'
There is no adaptation or universal applicability in man. Dryden has said: 'What the child admired, The youth endeavored, and the man acquired.'
You should focus your effort on one particular task to bring it to success. Success comes as the result of continuous and repeated effort.
