Christian D. Larson is one of my inspirations and one of his writings is this creed. He has written this almost a century ago, but it is still relevant today! Read this upon waking up and before going to sleep. Be inspired!

The Optimist Creed
I promise myself:
- To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.
- To talk health, happiness, & 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 & make my optimism come true.
- To think only of the best, to work only for the best, & 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 & 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, & too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
- To think well of myself & 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.
Live a good life, la buena vida!!!
