Think of the gains you've made in business, Not the losses you've incurred;
Think of the good of you that's spoken, Not some cruel, hostile word;
Think of the days of health and pleasure, Not the days of woe and pain;
Think of the days alive with sunshine, Not the dismal days of rain;
Think of the hopes that lie before you, Not the waste that lies behind you;
Think of the treasures you have gathered, Not the ones you've failed to find;
Think of the service you may render, Not of serving self alone;
Think of the happiness of others And in this you'll find your own.
