The good life

There are a lot of good people in the world. There are a lot of good things going on in life.

Don’t let the negative things get you down. Take them in stride, and move quickly on to something that will make all of life more positive.

Every day is an opportunity to do great and meaningful work, and to experience life in new, fulfilling ways. Every day is a day in which you can make life better for others and for yourself.

Treasure each moment without letting the negative distractions get in your way. Put positive, meaningful, satisfying effort into life, and continue to feel how great it is to make a difference.

If people don’t treat you fairly, that’s their problem. When life presents you with difficult challenges, that’s your opportunity to shine.

The way to live the good life is to live each moment with goodness in your heart. Life is good because you always have the ability to make it so.

— Ralph Marston
