[Soaring Feather]

For the Troops and Canteen Crew

Keep Your Motivation

It's the steady, constant driving
To the goal for which you're striving,
Not the speed with which you travel,
That will make your victory sure.

It's the everlasting gaining,
Without whimper or complaning
At the burdens you are bearing,
Or the woes you must endure.

It's the holding to a purpose
And never giving in;
It's the cutting down the distance
By the little that you win;

It's the iron will to do it
And the steady sticking to it;
So whatever your task, go for it !
Keep your motivation and plug along !
