“Chance favors the minds that are prepared.”
-Louis Pasteur
“There is but one step from the sublime
To the ridiculous.” -Napoleon Bonaparte

It’s all about the mind,
It’s about the thought I’m having
At each moment in time,
It’s about whether I have a goal in mind.

Do I know where I’m going?
Do I know how to seek help,
How to seek protection
From God?

’Cause that is very important
For my every step,
I have to have my mind ready
For what I truly want.

I know my every step in the past,
Every step was right,
My goal in my mind,
To be reached, to be realized.

But I have to listen to God,
Only God knows
How to get there,
I have no idea.

I only know one thing,
Every step counts,
Whether it’s right or wrong,
You have to move.
