=Youth is loving work:= Like what you do.  Do what makes you and others happy.  Enter your daily work with joy.  Adjust it until you do like it.  Learn to love work for the happiness it brings.  Put joy into your work in the morning and you will find it multiplied into happiness at night.  Work is a law of youth.  Inaction is decay.  Inertia is death.  Men and women do not usually lose their positions, they drive their positions away from them.  The law of work will not stand personal abuse, any more than the law of beauty will endure brutality.  Form an ideal of your work, make a mental picture of it, simplify it, orderly it, beautify it, then glorify it.  Start the process in the slightest degree and you will get a result.  Put a new shock absorber on your disposition.  Bring your fine sensibilities to your work, be big morally, be deep mentally, and work with confident expectation.  Put rules and system into your daily task.  Exercise your self-control, your self-possession, self-mastery, march up to your task with efficiency backed up by a dominant will.  Realize your Supreme Personality in your work.  Put the absolute “I am,” into your purpose of toil.  Put dominating decision “I have decided,” into your efforts.  Put invincible determination, “I will,” into your complex problem.  Put irresistible confidence, “I shall achieve,” into your ardent desires.  You will then love work.  When you come to love work you will not exhaust yourself in it, you will not tire your brain and body with its friction, because you will not work with selfish purposes, but work to enrich the world.  “Love is the fulfilling of the law.”

=Youth is supreme cheerfulness:= To be funless is to be lifeless.  Good cheer is the tonic of youth.  If you are so sad you cannot laugh at something, then laugh at nothing.  “Laugh and the world”—­you know it.  An ounce of smiles will give you more real life than seven tons of solemncholy.  Cheerfulness and prosperity go hand in hand.  Bathe in mirth.  Frolic in some sunshine daily, even if you live in Pittsburgh and have to make your own sunshine.  Make fun, don’t always buy it.  You can cure disease and kill the Devil with laughter.  Cultivate an infectious laugh.  Mirth makes work easy.  Read humor and learn to tell it.  Practice telling a good, funny story.  Be a quick wit.  There is a bright side to everything in this world, even to a dark-lantern.  The end of the film is sure to be jolly.  Good cheer attracts good luck.  Cheer up.  If you haven’t a smile get one of somebody and wear it as your own.  “Let thine heart cheer thee.”  Give it out-let.  Go to sleep with a smile on your face and you will awaken with a joy in your heart.  Let your humor be rich humor.  Laughter is the cipher-key to a man.  It is one of the most delightful sounds of earth.  Most utterly lost is the day you laugh not.  Mirth clears the mirrors of the mind.
