Promise Yourself

Today- Promise yourself... 

Promise yourself to be so strong 
that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. 
to talk health, happiness and prosperity 

Promise yourself to every person you meet, 
to make all of your friends fel that there is something in them. 
to look at the sunny side of everything 
and make your optimism come true. 

Promise yourself to think only of the best, 
to work only for the best, and 
to expect only the best. 
to be just enthusiastic about the success of others 
as you are about your own. 

Promise yourself 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. 

Promise yourself 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.
