1. You shall not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human
activities.

2. You shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come
to pass.

3. You shall not carry grudges, for they are the heaviest of all life's
burdens.

4. You shall face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at
a time anyway.

5. You shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor
bedfellows.

6. You shall not borrow other people's problems. They can better care
for them than you.

7. You shall not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, it is forever
gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now!

8. You shall be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear
ideas different from your own.

9. You shall not become "bogged down" by frustration, for 90% of it is
rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.

10. You shall count your blessings, never overlooking the small ones,
for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one.

PRAYER
"Lord, you gave your life for my sake, to redeem me from slavery to
sin and death. Help me to carry my cross with joy that I may
willingly do your will and not shrink back out of fear or cowardice
when trouble besets me."
