• ◊ To make all your friends feel that there is something 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 countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
