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 look at the sunny side of everything
and make your optimism come true.

To think only 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 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.

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to
the world,not in loud words but great deeds.

To live in faith that the whole world is on your side
so long as you are true to the best that is in you.”

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken,
The crown-less again shall be KING.
