An old man appeared on a popular television program. He had
received a prize for having won a contest. He stole the show with his exuberant
spirit and quick wit. “It’s easy to see,” remarked the admiring master of
ceremonies, “that you are a very happy man. What’s the secret of being as happy
as you are? Let us in on it.” “Why, son,” the old man answered, “it’s as plain
as the nose on your face. When I wake up in the morning, I have two choices.
One is to be unhappy; the other is to be happy. And I want you to know, son,
that I’m not as dumb as I may look. I’m smart enough to choose happiness. I
just make up my mind to be happy . . . that’s all there is to it.”
Norman Vincent Peale
