When You Believe.

Ask anyone in the sales force of Fuji Xerox, and they will not deny that it has been a stressful last two weeks. In fact, you don't even need to ask: just glance at my Facebook or Twitter feed and you will feel the stress levels that is haunting each person with a 200% target pinned to their heads.

There's been those days when we face a nasty and unreasonable customer. There's been those days when each call we make brings bad news, like tsunami waves that batter the shore not just once but twice or three times. There's been those days when there is simply NO NEWS. And those are probably some of the hardest days, even harder than bearing with a flat out "No."

There's been those days, and then some.

So this post is specially dedicated to my dear friends-cum-colleagues boiling together in the pressure cooker. To the ones who, even at their lows and lowest, never say die. To those who understand it's just a matter of time, even when the watch itself stops working. To those who will fight to the end of the month without giving up...

This song is for us... Because even though the targets are high and the orders seem slow, we will achieve BECAUSE we believe. :)

Many nights we've prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood

Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we knew we could


There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will

You will when you believe

In this time of fear
When prayers so often prove(s) in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away

Yet now I'm standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe



They don't (always happen) when you ask
(Oh)
And it's easy to give in to your fears
(Oh...Ohhhh)
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way straight throught the rain
(A small but )still resilient voice
Says (hope is very near)
(Ohhh)

There can be miracles
(Miracles)
When you believe
(Lord, when you believe)
Though hope is frail
(Though hope is frail)
It's hard to kill
(Hard to kill, Ohhh)
Who knows what miracles,you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will (somehow,somehow, somehow)
somehow you will
You will when you believe

You will when you
You will when you believe
Just believe...in your heart
Just believe
You will when you believe

**She can't wait for this weekend!**
