Hi folks,
I guess this is a "read old files" day. I happened upon words of wisdom
that somebody gave me long ago, and I keep it posted on my refrigerator. I
don't know who the author is, but I believe in every word of it.
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 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 our attitudes."
