The day you think you're winning
 is the day you fail the most.
The day you give up fighting
 is the day you give up life.
The day you think you've got the world
 all figured out
is the day you fall behind the pack
 while they keep running on.

If you stop to smell the flowers
 you'll get lost along the way.
If you rest upon the throne you've built
 your life will drain away.
If you don't take the time
to consider how you're wrong,
to value your inadequacies,
to tally your defects,
you'll simply stand along the wayside
just another distance post on someone else's road,
just another victory
in someone else's fight
to improve.
