Cheerfulness as a Life Power + BONUS "An Iron Will" Be Cheerful! The importance of cheerfulness and how to cultivate it in your every day life cannot be overemphasized. Cheerfulness is a quality that all people who are successful as happy and resourceful have in them. This book offers some down-to-earth, practical ways and encouragement on this quality of cheerfulness. Some Nice Insights From the Book: 1. Many men go through life carrying their tongue, their temper, their whole disposition so that wherever they go, others dread them. Some men fill the air with their presence and sweetness, as orchards in October days fill the air with the perfume of ripe fruit." 2. "Health and good humor," said Massillon, "are to the human body like sunshine to vegetation." 3. He alone is the happy man who has learned to extract happiness, not from ideal conditions, but from the actual ones about him. The man who has mastered the secret will not wait for ideal surroundings; he will not wait until next year, next decade, until he gets rich, until he can travel abroad, until he can afford to surround himself with works of the great masters; but he will make the most out of life to-day, where he is. 4. Children ought never to get the impression that they live in a hopeless, cheerless, cold world; but the household cheerfulness should transform their lives like sunlight, making their hearts glad with little things, rejoicing upon small occasion. 5. "One's personal enjoyment is a very small thing, but one's personal usefulness is a very important thing." Those only are happy who have their minds fixed on some object other than their own happiness. 6. "We rise by the things that are under our feet; By what we have mastered of good or gain; By the pride deposed and the passion slain, And the vanquished ills that we hourly meet."
