Optimists Live Longer

Optimists Live Longer -- Because they want to,

but also because others want them to, too....

"The Optimist Creed"

Promise Yourself

Begin each day by promising yourself to:

* Be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

* Talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.

* Make all your friends feel that there is something in them.

* Look at the sunny side of everything, and make your optimism come true.

* Think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.

* Be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

* Forget the mistakes of the past, and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

* Wear a cheerful countenance at all times, and give every living creature you meet a smile.

* Give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

* Be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
