- 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, & too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

Projects:
We always have several projects ongoing that we sponsor or support,
all aimed at reaching out to the youth in our community.
But, we are always looking for more... do you have a suggestion
for us?
Go here to see what we are currently up to.
So What is a Typical Optimist?
Anyone... Everyone! To be an Optimist, all you need is a desire to
serve your community, and especially the Children, through active
participation with other like-minded people. The
Optimist Creed
says it all!
