❖ To make all your friends feel that there is something
in them.
❖ To look at the sunny side of everything and make
your optimism come true.
❖ To think only of the best, to work only for the best,
and to expect only the best.
❖ To be just as enthusiastic about the success of
others as you are about your own.
❖ To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to
the greater achievements of the future.
❖ To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and
give every living creature you meet a smile.
❖ To give so much time to the improvement of
yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
❖ To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too
strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence
of trouble.
