The Optimist Creed
Promise Yourself
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, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
Who We Are
The Middleton Optimists seek to make a difference in the lives of youth by participating in a variety of activities throughout the year. Members are dedicated to serving the youth of Middleton and the surrounding area. Our many programs not only assist local youngsters, but also give our members a great sense of accomplishment.
Optimism is not only a great way to help others...it is a great way to have fun too!
