Don’t Quit
When you’ve eaten too much
and you can’t write it down
And you feel like the biggest
failure in town;
When you want to give up
just because you gave in
And forget all about
being healthy and thin;
So What! You went over
your points a bit;
It’s your next move that
counts.....so don’t you quit!
It’s a moment of truth,
It’s an attitude change;
It’s learning the skills to
get back in your range;
It’s telling yourself “You’ve
done great up till now;
You can take on this challenge
and beat it somehow.”
It’s part of your journey
toward reaching your goal;
You’re still gonna make it,
just stay in control.
To stumble and fall is not a disgrace
If you summon the will to
get back in the race;
But, often the struggler’s
when losing their grip
Just throw in the towel
and continue to slip
And, learn too late when
the damage is done
That the race wasn’t over
and they still could have won
Lifestyle change can be
awkward and slow
But facing each challenge
will help you to grow;
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint in the cloud of doubt.
When you’re pushing to the brink,
just refuse to submit;
If you bite it you write it...
But don’t you quit!
