Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you. Bend at it, sweat at it, smile at it too. For out of the bend and the sweat and the smile Come life's victories after a while. For Craig Snyder, former UVSC student and president of Sioux Falls Tower Inc., the poem is more than just a frivolous wall ornament. It is his formula for success.
Beginners are many but enders are few.
From an early age, Snyder knew what his life's task would be. When he was only 12 years old, he knew that he wanted to be the one calling the shots. Snyder credits his dream to the examples of both his grandfather who ran a local construction company and a respected mentor who was also a business owner. In high school, Snyder was a self-declared struggling student who didn't make the grades or have the funds to attend any of the larger universities. I just didn't apply myself like I should have.
