I will persist until I succeed.

In the Orient young bulls are tested for the fight arena in a certain manner.

Each is brought to the ring and allowed to attack a picador who pricks them with a lance.

The bravery of each bull is then rated with care according to the number of times he demonstrates his willingness to charge in spite of the sting of the blade.

Henceforth will I recognize that each day I am tested by life in like manner.

If I persist,if I continue to try,if I continue to charge forward, I will succeed.

I will persist until I succeed.

I was not delivered unto this world in defeat, nor does failure course in my veins.

I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd.

I am a lion and I refuse to talk,to walk, to sleep with the sheep.
