There are many times in the life of the youth who does things that are worth while, when he gets terribly discouraged, and thinks it easier to go back than to push on. But there is no victory in retreating, and we should never leave any bridges unburned behind us, or leave a way open for retreat to tempt our weakness, indecision, or discouragement. We should have courage and pluck and grit enough to push on, to keep going when things look dark and when seemingly insurmountable obstacles confront us.

Most people are their own worst enemies. We are all the time "queering"our life game by our vicious, tearing-down thoughts and unfortunate moods. Everything depends upon our courage, our faith in ourselves, in our holding a hopeful, optimistic outlook; and yet, whenever things go wrong with us, whenever we have a discouraging day or an unfortunate experience, a loss or any misfortune, we let the tearing-down thought, doubt, fear, discouragement, like a bull in a china shop, tear through our mentalities, breaking up and destroying the work perhaps of years of building-up, and we have to start all over again. Most of us work like the frog in the well. We climb up, only to fall back, and so lose all we gain.
