It takes us places
puts people in the race.

An unflinching attitude shines
the dejected ones just pine.

Tenacity pays
there are busy days.

Grit speaks volumes
lack of it sparks fumes.

Resolve matters
dreams flatter.

Will power guides
our soul and pride. 

Spirits are high
some just sigh.

One needs guts
then there are no ifs and buts.
