Even when you are the clear
loser, start writing your victory speech. Don’t ever expect to lose. No matter
what the odds, plan to win. History is filled with victories that were stolen
from the jaws of sure defeat and it almost always happens at the last moment
when all seems lost and hope is almost gone. History shows us that the winners usually
encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. But they stayed in
the fight. They kept trying. They won because they refused to become
discouraged by their defeats.
