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 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 very
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 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 percent what
happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it. And
so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes!"
