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 success, 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, an organization, a home. The remarkable thing is
we have a choice every day regarding the Attitude we will
embrace for that day. We cannot change the 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 Attitudes.
