I will put this in my dream book. Love this poem. Got it from one of John C. Maxwell's lectures.

“BEWARE OF DREAM-STEALERS”

The dangerous people are not the ones
Who hit you with clubs and rob you with guns
The thief won’t attack your character trait
Or belittle your abilities to your face

It’s likely to be the well-meaning friend
Who merely crushes your will to win
No, he doesn’t rob you at the point of a gun
He simply tells you, “It can’t be done.”

When pointing to thousands who already are
He simply says, “They’re superior,
Personality wise and ability to,
They’re way ahead of what others can do.”

It matters not that his words are untrue
For you feel others must know you too
So here you are
Robbed of your dreams, your hopes to succeed,
Robbed of material blessings received
Robbed of your faith that says, “I can”
And robbed of an ignorant, gun-less friend

So the deadliest of men is not he with a gun
But the one who tells you “It can’t be done”
For that taken by robbers can be gotten again
But who can replace your will to win?
