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 failures,
than successes,
than what other people think
or 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 thing 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 Attitudes."
