3.22.2013 ATTITUDE

by charles swindoll

the longer i live, the more i realize the impact of attitude on life.
attitude to me, is more important
than the facts,
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 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.
