PRESCRIPTION FOR HAPPINESS

PRESCRIPTION FOR HAPPINESS

 

Make up your mind to be happy.

 

Learn to find pleasure in simple things.

 

Make the best of your circumstances.

No one has everything and

Everyone has something of sorrow

Intermingled with the gladness of life.

 

The trick is to make the laughter

Outweigh the tears.

 

Don't take yourself too seriously.

 

You can't please everybody;

Don't let criticism worry you.

 

Don't let your neighbor

Set your standards.

 

Do the things you enjoy doing,

But stay out of debt.

 

Don't borrow trouble.

 

Imaginary things are harder to bear

Than the actual ones.

 

Since hate poisons the soul,

Do not cherish enmities and grudges.

 

Don't hold post-mortems.

 

Don't spend your life

Brooding over sorrows and mistakes.

 

Don't be one who

Never gets over things.

 

Do what you can for those

Less fortunate than yourself.

 

Keep busy at something.

 

A very busy person never

Has time to be unhappy.

 

For maximum effectiveness,

This prescription should be taken

As often as needed.

 

Unlimited refills available.

 

This prescription for happiness

Bears remembering and repeating...

OFTEN!

 

Robert Louis Stevenson
