• Take the fist step, its up to you. You just have to realize that you have so much to offer, and you have so much ahead of you! Find your path, and begin your journey.

“You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You’re on your own.  And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who’ll decide where to go.”

• You may not think you are good enough, but you are! You know that you have so much potential to do great things. The fact that you are making the decision to put yourself out there speaks so many words.

“You won’t lag behind, because you’ll have the speed.
You’ll pass the whole gang and you’ll soon take the lead.
Wherever you fly, you’ll be the best of the best.
Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.

Oh, the places you’ll go! There is fun to be done!
There are points to be scored.  there are games to be won.
And the magical things you can do with that ball
will make you the winning-est winner of all.
Fame!  You’ll be famous as famous can be,
with the whole wide world watching you win on TV.”

“You’ll get mixed up, of course,
as you already know.
You’ll get mixed up
with many strange birds as you go.
So be sure when you step.
Step with care and great tact
and remember that Life’s
a Great Balancing Act.”
Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

You may get stuck at a bump in the road, and have to make risky decisions. Just remember, that you have to be very careful making these decisions. Remember all of the other things that you have in your life and make sure that the decisions you make will really benefit you and don’t hurt others.
