Tentative efforts

     lead to tentative outcomes.

Therefore give yourself fully

     to your endeavors.

Decide to construct your character

     through excellent actions.

Determine to pay the price

     of a worthy goal.

The trials you encounter

     will introduce you to your strengths.

Remain steadfast. . .

And one day you will build

     something that endures:

Something worthy

of your potential.
