HOW TO BE HAPPY
(By Douglas Fairbanks,. The first thing to do in this morning is to smile. When you awaken, *if you will grin, you will enjoy the whole day. A smile in the morning will do you more good than a grape fruit and costs less. One of the best secrets of success is to start the day right. Do it with a smile. Don’t be afraid to say “Good morning.” When you say it. add a smile to your words so the one you are saying it to will know you mean it. Never say “Good morning” just because you think it is a duty. Make it- a pleasure and you will help yourself as well as the other fellow. Never take yourself too seriously. Remember we are all human, the circumstances or position do not change us, boss or no boss. When you shake anybody by the hand do it as though you enjoyed it. Put a couple of ounces of pressure behind your grasp. Don't go at it as though you were picking 1 tip a hot coal. Laugh at your work and make it easy. Start the day smiling and keep it up until late. Then you will be a success. Take a last look in the mirror each night just before you turn out the light. If you are smiling at yourself you will have a good sleep. I Smile all the time. It's great for you.
