Attitude of Gratitude

During classroom time not only do we talk about x's and o's, but we also talk about life issues as well. This week we are focused in on our attitudes and how they can hurt us or better yet help us. We talked about having an attitude of gratitude today. The following is a poem called Promise Yourself that I read to the guys today.


Promise Yourself…
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true
To think only of 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 share the greater achievements of the future
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 strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble
