Attitude

Attitude
" The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of
attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important
than facts. It is more important than the past,
than education, than money, than circumstances,
than failure, than successes, than what other
people think, say or do. It is more important than
appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break
a company... a church...a home. The remarkable
thing is we have a choice every day, regarding the
attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot
change our past... we cannot change the fact that
people will act in a certain way. We cannot change
the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on
the one string we have, and that is our attitude... I
am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me
and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...
we are in charge of our Attitude."
