Promise Yourself for The New Year...

 

To be strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

To make all your friends feel that there is something special about 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 make the best come true.

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.
