Typing Practice


I finished lesson 6 with a max speed of 20 WPM.

Re-Typed Poem and Reflection of Poem

If you think you are beaten, you are,
If you think you dare not, you don't, 
If you like to win, but you think you can't, 
It is almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out in the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow's will.
It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are, 
You've got to think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go 
To the stronger or faster man.
But soon or late the man who wins,
Is the man who thinks he can.

I think the poem above is trying to say that if we want to be victorious, we must believe in ourselves. If we're not confident, we can't be successful. Also, the poem expresses how, if we don't try, we can't achieve anything.Doing something is a lot better than doing nothing. If you think you'll be a failure you will. It's all in your state of mind.
