FINISH WHAT YOU BEGIN
WHEN YOU START AN ANTIBIOTIC, see it to the end,
For healing is a journey, not a shortcut to bend.
Half-done battles breed stronger foes—
And resistance is the seed that negligence sows.
WHEN YOU CHOOSE TO LOSE WEIGHT, stay the course,
Discipline, not haste, becomes the force.
The body responds to consistent grace,
Not fleeting efforts or a hurried pace.
When you take your dose to fight the fever,
Malaria yields not to the faint believer.
Complete the treatment, finish the fight,
Let no parasite linger in the night.
WHEN YOU OPEN A BOOK, let its last word call,
For stories, like dreams, deserve to sprawl.
The mind grows where pages are turned,
And wisdom dwells where curiosity burned.
WHEN YOU ENROL IN A COURSE, don’t drop the thread,
Knowledge feeds where the hungry are led.
The road may be long, the nights severe,
But every end is where visions clear.
WHEN YOU START A DEGREE, wear it like a crown,
Though burdens may weigh and hopes fall down.
Push through the storm, sweat through the test—
The tassel is proof you gave your best.
WHEN YOU PREPARE FOR EXAMS, write them with might,
Don’t abandon the race at the edge of the night.
Effort must marry ex*****on to bloom,
Or dreams will wither in silent gloom.
Cease the habit of leaving things half-done,
Of fleeing the path before the race is won.
Incomplete healing breeds lasting pain,
And half-built bridges break in the rain.
In medicine, this breeds complication,
In life, it births stagnation.
Resistance, regret—these are the costs,
Of dreams abandoned and victories lost.
Whatever good thing you’ve dared to begin,
Run it through to the glorious end within.
Greatness favours the finisher’s creed—
So sow with resolve, and let completeness lead.
