I Promise Myself. . .

“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 to 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 words, but in great deeds.

To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, as longs as I am true to the best that is in me.”
