The Optimist Creed
I have The Optimist Creed by
I promise myself…
§ To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.
§ To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet.
§ To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.
§ To look at the sunny side of everything and make my 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 I am about my 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 I meet.
§ To give so much time to improving myself that I 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 myself 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 my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.
~~ Christian D.
Over the years, I’ve shared this with many people and I’ve noticed that everyone believes this or live their lives by this creed. That saddens me to a point. I’ve also noticed that in my greatest hour of despair, I have been guilty of forgetting this creed. No More! That is why I read it daily and apply it to my life daily. I encourage all of you to do the same.

Attitudes Are Contagious
Allan said his are not worth catching because he takes everything personally. He’s learning that everything is not always about him. He agrees to work on his attitude.
William has a great attitude in my opinion. He doesn’t take too many things personally either.
I loved William’s attitude when his football team played in the little league Super Bowl and he didn’t get any play time that night. It was cold and pouring rain. All William cared about was that he was on a football team and his team won.
After the game when all of the players and parents assembled in the locker room, William was found posing and taking pictures with the championship trophy. His attitude was GREAT.
Some of the other players who didn’t get play time were crying, angry, pouting and complaining. Not William, he was posing with the trophies and giving himself kudos for cheering on his teammates who actually played in the game.
Go William!
