Smile
Is Mightier Than a Grin
Every
great and commanding movement in the history of the world incorporated enthusiasm.
Nothing
great was or will be achieved without it.
So
decide to become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
A
smile is the shortest distance between two people.
Greet
the unseen with cheer, not fear.
Follow
the advice of Norman Cousins, “Laughter is a form of internal jogging. It moves
your internal organs around. It also enhances respiration.”
Happiness
is always an inside job. Our first choice should be to rejoice. For every
minute that you are angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
Two
things contribute to happiness: what we can do without and what we can do with.
People
are about as happy as they have made up their minds to be. Happiness can never
be found, because it was never lost!
One
seldom meets a person who fails at doing what he or she likes to do.
Don’t
worry about the job you don’t like. Someone will soon have it. There is only
one way to improve one’s work - love it.
Be
like the steam kettle, though up to its neck in hot water, it continues to
sing.
