It was there all along, you just didn’t know it.

We all have our ups and downs, the days that just don’t go our way, or tasks we see as monumentally difficult, hop on the Bo Jack Express Train, and I’ll do my best to lessen your pain. You see the little engine that could can haul freight people or wood, I’ll get you felling better, like you know you deserve and should. The dancing word man is at it again, Spreading the attitude of courage so you feel like you are six feet ten. So jump in hop on and get yourself strapped down, big bad Bo Jack is going to show you how to throw some attitude around. Say it out loud, stand up and be proud. Ready? The Bo Jack attack is back, and the naysayer’s don’t know jack.

Onward, Bo Jack style, pound that negativity straight into the ground.

Self promotion
Forward motion
Powerful emotion
Propulsion
Forceful locomotion
Attack
Don’t hold back
Go on the offensive
Put them on the defensive
Dominate
Control your fate
Don’t hesitate
Open up that gate
Don’t procrastinate
Annihilate
Know that you are great
Turn this thing around
Put them upon the ground
Don’t let them get up in your face
Simply put them in their place
Engineer
Domineer
Show no mental fear
Walk tall
Be proud
Stand out against the crowd
Never quit
Never cower
Look inside this very hour
Find your inner power
Down inside trust you feeling
You’ve got what it will take
You can bend
Just a little
But don’t you ever break
Of this wisdom freely take
A better you it will make
You’ll be happy when you do
You’ll be a better you
Don’t back down
That just brings a frown
Never take that path
Every once in a while
Tap into that wrath
It will help you to get through
The proof is in the math
Don’t wait
It’s not too late
To put some power
On your plate
It’s been there all along
You just didn’t
Know how strong
If it’s in me
Then it’s in you
And all you have to do
Is have a little faith
In yourself
And it will ring true
It was right there waiting
Deep inside of you
Find it
Use it
Feel it
Become it
You can do anything
You can sing
You can fly
Just spread your wings
And try
And never ever
Ever ever
Never say die
And don’t you ever give in
When you play
You play to win
A powerful positive attitude
Helps get you through this life
Now if I could only do this myself…..
