You Must Begin To End

You have to start to finish.
You must begin to end.
Only a fool or a lazy man
expects a reward, but never began.

Nothing comes on a platter of gold.
How many times have you been sold
a lie that sounded too good to be true,
something you instinctively knew
would never work and didn\'t?

A word of advice from a friend, if you will.
No result will come unless and until
you roll up your sleeves and give it a go,
pace yourself, start out slow.
And before you know it, you\'ve made it through,
if you want it done, it\'s up to you.
How many times have I heard people say:
\"Well, this is certainly not my lucky day.\"
Well, luck, my friend, is what you do,
from start to finish, seeing it through.
And that\'s because this saying is true:
You have to start to finish.
You must begin to end.
