Regardless of whether you are a member of the Optimist Club or not, you can learn a lot from their
creed. It has been published as inspiration for people worldwide for many years and was published numerous times in our newsletter.
The Optimist Creed
 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 make all your friends feel that there is
something in 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 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. |
