There's a lot to do!

There are days,

When you're not praised.

And there are times,

When you're not listened to.

There are many moments-

unacknowledged & discredited - which might leave you.

But don't you stop there,

There's a lot to do!

Yes it is disheartening,

And quite discouraging too.

You'll meet people who might,

Keep trying to deject you.

Unhappy times will come and go.

But don't ever stop striving, 

To make your dreams come true.

Let attaining excellence, be your sole purpose,

Even if no one ever appreciates you.

Just go on doing and getting better,

There's a lot to do!
