“A positive attitude is contagious, but don’t wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier” is a motivational saying that has been printed on many images.

“A healthy attitude is contagious, but don’t wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier!” is the usual form of the saying and has been cited in print since at least 2000. “Cheerfulness is contagious, but don’t wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier!” was cited in print in 1956, and was probably coined by American humorist Arnold Glasow (1905-1998).

“RT @JulieC2009: A positive attitude is contagious but don’t wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier” was posted on Twitter by Ray Prock Jr. (and another) on June 1, 2009. (The original tweet is not available.) It is possible that this version of the saying was coined here.
