VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Hi, John Maxwell here. Welcome to Minute with Maxwell. I have a statement of strength for you from Mary Lou Retton. You'll remember Mary Lou. She was that incredible gymnast that not only won gold medals. But she had an electric contagious smile. I mean, that girl could light up a room.

Here's what Mary Lou Retton said, ‘Optimism is a happiness magnet…’ Makes sense, she would say that, ‘…If you stay positive, good things and good people will be drawn to you.' And she's exactly right. In my law of magnetism, I teach in the 21 laws that we attract who we are, not who we want. Mary Lou says that if you are filled with optimism and happiness, you're going to be a magnet to draw other people that are optimistic, or what do we say sometimes, birds of a feather, what do they do? They flock together.

I got a question for you: Who do you draw to yourself? Who congregates around you? That's a pretty good question. I hope that, especially during the dark days, you let your light shine and smile big kind of [like] Mary Lou people [smile]. Why not? I think that sounds good.

Thanks for joining me today on Minute with Maxwell.
