The Optimist Creed

Be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. Make all your friends feel there is something in them. Look at the sunny side of everything. Be as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give everyone a smile. Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticize others. Be too big for worry and too noble for anger. -Christian D. Larsen

I LOVE this quote.

   this is certainly something to aspire to but it seems that it would be difficult in the course of every day living.  Yet I do know of a few who seem to live in accordance with this.  I will try.

[Nevertheless]

Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticize others.

That's really good!
