Life – Here’s a philosophy

I came across this the other day and wanted to share.  It’s a beautiful reminder about life.  Sometimes we can get sucked in to focusing on things that don’t really matter.

It’s a holstee manifesto and it’s possible to purchase it from them.

Optimists Creed

I love this – so I thought I’d share it with you.

The Optimist Creed by Christian Larson

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 worthwhile 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 expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet.

To give so much time to improving 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 word, but in great deeds.

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

Ambition

I’ve just come across this wonderful quote :-

"Keep away from small people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great people make you feel that you, too, can become great!"
— Mark Twain

Small people are so consumed by fear that in essence they’re scared to move.  Great people on the other hand live with fear, not in it, but with it.
