GOLDEN THOUGHTS
Promise little and do much. No man is down and out until he believes it himself. If you keep your mouth shut there will be no chance to measure your depth. No one wants any dealings with a failure, so be a success. A man is paid for what he does, not for what he hopes to do. Thousands that are capable of great sacrifices are yet not capable of the little ones which are all that are required of them.
If we are happy, we must hold the lamp of our happiness so that its beams will fall upon the shadowed hearts around us. You may close your eyes to your faults, but your neighbors won’t take that trouble. The line between failure and success is so fine that we are often on the line and we do not know it. Keep your smile in working order for the better days to come.
