FEELING DISCOURAGED??? READ THIS!

I found this poem somewhere and it really helped me. So i posted it here, believing someone might need it. As upcoming acts trying to break into the industry in Nigeria, I know the road is most probably tougher than usual and more often than not, most new comers just throw in the towel and quit when the pressure becomes overwhelming.  If you’re in that position right now, chill and read this ok? Trust me, you will feel better!

DON'T QUIT
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,

When the funds are low and the debts are high

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns,

And many a failure turns about

When he might have won had he stuck it out;

Don't give up though the pace seems slow--

You may succeed with another blow,

Success is failure turned inside out--

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far;

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--

It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
