Most unhappy people have become
so by gradually forming a habit of
unhappiness, complaining about the
weather, finding fault with their
food, with crowded cars, and with
disagreeable companions or work. a
habit Of complaining, Of criticising,
Of fault findings or grumbling over
trifies, a Ea BIT Of looking for shadows,
Is most unfortunate habit to con-
tract especially in early life, for, at
ter while, the victim becomes a
slave. All Of the impulses become
perverted, until the tendency to pes
simism, to cynicisins Is chronic.
Success.
