I Will Live This Day As If

If I Must Be A Slave To Habit Let Me Be A Slave To Good Habits.

Each Day Will Be Triumphant Only When Your Smiles Bring Forth Smiles From Others.

Remember That The Most Difficult Tasks Are Consummated, Not By A Single Explosive Burst Of Energy Or Effort, But By The Constant Daily Application Of The Best You Have Within You.

Never Allow Anyone To Rain On Your Parade And Thus Cast A Pall Of Gloom And Defeat On The Entire Day. Remember That No Talent, No Self-denial, No Brains, No Character, Are Required To Set Up In The Fault-finding Business. Nothing External Can Have Any Power Over You Unless You Permit It. Your Time Is Too Precious To Be Sacrificed In Wasted Days Combating The Menial Forces Of Hate, Jealously, And Envy. Guard Your Fragile Life Carefully. Only God Can Shape A Flower, But Any Foolish Child Can Pull It To Pieces.

Few Things Are Necessary To Make The Wise Man Happy While No Amount Of Material Wealth Would Satisfy A Fool. I Am Not A Fool.
