[CyberTOPS] "Don't Quit"

[Charlotte W.]

GREAT POEM, and thank you for sharing.

As for your friend, you tell her that it is better to have worked hard and
turtled than to have worked hard and gained.B 

This week she should keep doing what she has been doing and maybe drop off a
few calories per day and / or pump up the exercise a little......she will see
results GOOD results if she keeps going......but we all know what will happen
if she quits......

TOPS is for LOSERS, not quitters.....


"If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really
living.
Growth demands a temporary surrender of security."

My TOPS friend did everything right this week, counting calories, exercising,
yet she turtled and is really "bummed".B B B I shared this poem with her and
thought others might feel discouraged too.B B B Don't give up. Don't quit!
"Don't Quit"When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,When the road you're
trudging, seems all uphill,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
you might have won...had you stuck it out! Don't give up though the pace
seems
slow, You might 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
hardest hit,It's when things seem worst...THAT YOU MUST NOT QUIT!!!!
