Promise
Yourself
To be so
strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk
health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make
all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile 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 expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you
meet.
To give
so much time to improving 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.
To think
well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but
in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you
are true to the best that is in you.
