Each time we face the challenge
Of mastering a difficult feat
When both attitudes compete for brain space?
Inner conflict ... I can do this ... No I can't ... big time!
If asked to express the main difference between these attitudes, I'd say ... Ultimately, the 'up'n attem' attitude views experience as a series of experiments, leading toward achieving goals worth one's time, energy and creative efforts. The high self esteeming attitude, which is founded in self respect, accepts that failed experiments pave the road leading toward each long ranged goal's ultimate success.
As a self respecting, 'up'n attem' attitude expects failed experiments to pave its path, high self esteeming individuals develop into leaders who, understanding the nature of all-for-one-and-one-for-all, seek solid support while working to realize long range goals. You know ... like watching a woman, working for twelve years to garner support while figuring out how to mend a torn family until, one day, this woman, whose mind has grown weary and in need of rest, observes one of her beloved offspring apply the final stitch at the right time, which saves nine!
Hooray for team work!
Weary mind at rest wishes you a five star day! :)
Of mastering a difficult feat
Two attitudes compete while climbing each rung
On the ladder, leading toward success ...
On the ladder, leading toward success ...
This is true of life worth living
True of novels worth reading
True of films worth seeing
True of every lesson worth learning
Most especially true when lessons concern
Heartfelt passion in hot pursuit of lofty goals
If asked to name these attitudes, I'd reply ...
First is a high self esteeming attitude
If asked to name these attitudes, I'd reply ...
First is a high self esteeming attitude
Which views stumbling blocks as stairs to climb up
Saying up'n attem, all the while ...
Second is a low self esteeming attitude
Second is a low self esteeming attitude
Saying bah hum bug ... this is tiresome
What's the use of two steps up one back down ... I give up!
