When troubles arise, don't funk,
To tackle, take time to wisely think,
In tears, allow not your heart to sink,
Call the Almighty via prayer-link.
Say not sorrowfully that cup is half-empty,
Such an observation lacks surely creativity,
All have a responsibility to uplift humanity,
Fulfilling that duty needs a positive mentality.
Mind must be kept strong-willed,
By elevating ideas,it must be filled,
Via thinking process, it must be tilled,
Through this way, goals can be fulfilled.
Success can be achieved through life-management,
Management requires nothing but mind-adjustment,
A beggar everyday lives hopefully on the pavement,
Mainly because he just accepts God's judgement.
When hurdles come to hinder advancement,
Not possessing a calm and cool temperament,
Turns out to be life's most dangerous ailment,
Cure lies in nothing but attitude's adjustment.
Adversity is an acid test,
To pass it, be an optimist,
God is not at all a sadist,
He assists if we persist.
Problems are exactly like the sea-waves,
None can stop the journey to the graves,
Thinking brought us out of the caves,
Right thinking paves a way and saves,
All life's duties, continue to discharge,
Solutions flow when thinking is large,
Hope of mind, prayer will enlarge,
Believe that God takes full charge.
Accept losses by being calm,
By hoping, will soon cease storm,
Whatever may be the had harm,
God knows to well-transform.
Mind must never at all grow weak,
A solution, it must positively seek,
To God, you have a right to speak,
Prayer powers souls that are weak!
