Newbie Help w/ Constructors

I have some default variables I would like to set in my __construct for all my functions do use. Where am I going wrong here?

Code:

<?php
class Test extends Controller {
        
    function __construct()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        
        $this->message = "hello!";
    }
    
    
    function index()
    {        
        echo $message;    
    }

}

Code:

<?php
class Test extends Controller {

    public $message;
        
    function __construct()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        
        $this->message = "hello!";
    }
    
    
    function index()
    {        
        echo $this->message;    
    }

}

There has got to be a better way. Doing it your way would result in code like below. Which defeats the whole purpose of setting some default values that all my functions will inherit.

Code:

<?php
class Test extends Controller {

    public $message;
        
    function __construct()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        
        $this->username = "Steve";
    }
    
    
    function index()
    {        
        $data['username'] = $this->username;  
        $this->load->view('foo', $data);
    }

   function account()
    {        
        $data['username'] = $this->username;
        $this->load->view('foo', $data);
    }

}
