Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.

True security lies not in the things one has, but in the things one can do without.

Today I will be the master of my emotions.

I seek constantly to improve my manners and graces, for they are the sugar to which all are attracted.

Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday.

Many years ago, when I was just about as complete a failure as one can become, I began to spend a good deal of time in libraries, looking for some answers. I found all the answers I needed in that golden vein of ore that every library has.

I will greet this day with love in my heart.
