The Prize Beyond Us

For every conquest there’s a victory

For every exam there is a promotion

For every event there is an achievement

For every challenge there is an award

For every contest there is a winner

No conquest without earnest preparation

No examination without thoughtful reading

No event without so much planning and preparation

No challenge without a practice intense one

No contest with so much practice

For everything in life

There’s a price to be paid

And a prize to expect from at the end of the day

No one wants to contest without winning something at the end

Everyone run for a race no one run in vain

No matter what betides at the moment

Decide within you because it all starts within you

For every innovation comes from within

You can not underestimate the power of thought

So decide on what you want and pursue it

Focus on the prize run the race

Race off to your finish line

Write your script and get to the finish line

Never follow the crowd stand out and be counted

Look at the past as if it has never been in existence

But I challenge today

To be the news make things happen

Never be an on looker watching things happen

Be among those people that will be there

When history is made, because you are made to make things happen

The past behind you is sure that you’ll be fine

And reach for greatness see you at the top where eagles fly

Best of luck.
