When nothing goes your way … stand up.
When nothing goes your way … breathe out.
When nothing goes your way … smile.
When nothing goes your way … laugh.
When nothing goes your way … walk.
When nothing goes your way … think.
When nothing goes your way … sleep.
When nothing goes your way … try.

Try, and try again.

Find new ideas and test them.
Experiment and try new things.

So what if you fail?
So what if things don’t work right now?

Try, and try again.

For if you keep trying,
For if you keep on keeping on,
Something, somehow, someday,
Will go your way.

And when you find another,
For whom nothing goes their way,
Tell them …
To stand up, to breathe out, to smile …
