                                  Victorious Attitudes 

You cannot win the race,  unless you follow through. You cannot blame the others,  for it all depends on you.  You cannot win the battle, if you do not raise your sword. You cannot claim a victory, if there is no reward.  You cannot shape the future,  if you wait until it's here. The future has no purpose,  if you live today in fear.  Your future lies within your hand,  to do with what you may. For tomorrow brings results,  of what you've done today.  The choices that you make today,  reflect the life you seek. But first of all, the seeds are sown,  before the gardener reaps.  The future's like a lump of clay,  you hold within your hand. As time goes by, the clay gets hard,  so mould it while you can.  Failure is an attitude,  that haunts the mind of man. But, results will be successful, for the one who knows HE CAN!

...This is connected to my quotation "Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory."-George S. Patton, because it is saying in order to accomplish goals in life you have to try your hardest,  overcome your fears and accept challenges so you can live life to the fullest, become successful and be happy. If you do not try to accomplish challenges in life you will be miserable and unhappy, which is no life to live.
