Attitude

The longer you live, the more you will come to realize the impact of attitude on your life. Attitude, 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, skills, or being gifted. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the innevitable. 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 you and 90% how you react to it. And so it is with all of us...We are in charge of our attitudes.

~Charles Swindoll


this quote was given to me by a professor. and so i sit hear today and ask myself: what will my attitude be? i beg you to ask yourself the same question. our attitude can have a significant impact on our lives. It can determine whether we rise to a challenge or allow that challenge to beat us into a mass of irreconcilable self-loathing and disappointment. Accept that obstacle with determination in your heart and a smile on your face. i promise it will make life better.
