What is it that makes us
That truly defines who we are
And what we are becoming
I am determined
From all my examined thoughts
That all I have ever known
Points me to the truth
All the lessons I have had
Can serve to instruct me
I truly believe the power
It lies within our thoughts
The power of the mind
Which does not distinguish
Between good and bad
It only acts as a conduit
To energize us to achieve
Either greatness or failure
The pathways are lit
With electrical impulses
That either inspire hope
Or inspire fear
Magic or complacency
What we adhere to we become
So be careful
What you feed your head
Whatever you feed grows
Whatever you starve dies
Positive or negative
Your mind will crave more
Of whatever you feed it
Like an addiction
To break the patterns
That do not serve you
You must guard your mind
You must KNOW what you want
This life gives plenty of choices
Opportunities abound
You must learn to navigate them
Like a boat tossed by the sea
It takes knowledge and
Determination to pull through
To stay the course
To land safely
If you have faith
And if you want it
You can do anything
Your heart desires
So guard your mind
Put your boundaries around it
They’ll say it can’t be done
They’ll say no way
They’ll get angry
When you push through
Their eyes are blind
But you, you see
Even if they get angry
Falsely accuse you
Remember they are blind
If You see
Never give in
Never give up
If they don’t
They’re on the wrong brain train
Let them deplane
Get off at the station
They don’t believe in flying
They would have you
Believe they are right
That you’re crazy
Delusional in fact
Your faith is foolishness
Just listen to them
And they will
Paint your mind
With their negative words
Don’t let them
You don’t need their validation
You’ve learned from your losses
From the grief that comes
From quitting just before
The promise came to pass
The one you made to yourself
To believe and achieve
To make it all the way this time
To not accept defeat
The only way to lose is to give up
If you refuse that option
Then you will make it
All the way
No turning back
Stay focused
Surround yourself with
Positive can do people
Remove yourself from
Negative no can do thinkers
Don’t get stuck on the wrong team
If you want to win
Time to turn the tide
From fear to faith
To color the world
With hope and peace
Imagine all the magic
The good and prosperous
The life you want
Block out the chaos
The poor choices
Of those you once admired
You do not share their fate
You create you own
And make it good
For this life is yours
