Attitude is Everything


Attitude is Everything-The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what otherpeople 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 dayregarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannotchange our past... we cannot change the fact that people will actin a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thingwe can do is play on the one string we have, and that is 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 ourattitudes.
