Chillicothe Optimist Club

OPTIMIST CLUB CREED

Promise yourself…

      • 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 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.
      • To give so much time to the improvement of 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.
