It's Wednesday

Happy Hump Day everyone! Its been a great week thus far- Well, not for the Rockets they lost last night's game by 30. Not sure what to make of this - but this I know for sure- its not over yet! They are going to take it to 7!

I had planned to write about something else but I will save that for later in the week ( Am I teasing my writing? :)). 

I got a quick call from my girlfriend Michelle. We normally check in with each other regularly but since I decided to pay it forward ( this will come later as well) with Lisa Nichols book to her for Mother's day, we have been on the phone for brief boosts of positive energy four and five times a day for the last couple of days. This morning she asked me if I had ever heard of the Optimist's Creed from the Secret, which Lisa Nichols is also featured. She said she thought I would love it and encouraged me to look for it sooner rather than later. I got off the phone with her and decided to look it up while I had my coffee.  I thought it was a great push for the rest of the week. Enjoy 

I Promise Myself

 

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.
