A really tough guy
Shouldn’t have to prove it all the time
A really good pilot
Wouldn’t have to exhibit all the time
If you have a good idea
Be careful who you tell
Try to live each and every day
As if it were your last
For surely one day you will be right—
Wake up and smell the coffee
Take a moment
Stop and smell the roses
Stand up straight
Look people in the eye when you talk to them
Shrug your shoulders, and say:
“This is who I am,
And I like myself just fine.”
