Fear of Failure

I think I can,
I have a plan,
I am the man!
Then I get slammed,
Against a wall,
I'm bound to fall,
To reach success,
It takes a maschoist,
To achieve one's goals,
Gotta sacrafice tears, fears, and maybe a broken nose,
I suppose analogies about less travelled roads,
Sometimes applies,
But I've seen what effort and luck brings the other guys,
And women who don't stop and don't quit,
Try, try, and try again, and take nobody's $#!+,
Copy their blueprint of success and follow it!
