Attitude
by Charles Swindoll
The longer I live
the more I realize
the impact of attitude on my 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 what other people 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 everyday
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 certian way.
We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the 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 attitude.
Enjoy your Day, Teri
Teri, I'm enjoying your blog and have been where you are now. I was widowed in 2004 at age 58, toured the country on my Harley in 2005 (solo), sold my house & stuff in 2006 - had the buyer back out, sold my house & stuff in 2007, bought a Class C and a dual-sport motorcycle, sold my car and my Harley and hit the road in October 2007. Never looked back...
ReplyDeleteWas blessed to meet my now husband at an RV Rally in Jul 2008 and we now live every day to the fullest! Life is for the living....
It's not always easy to choose the right attitude each day, but it can be done! I know. :)

ReplyDeleteGood post - I'm starting to post things I'll want to save, too. It will be nice later to be able to find them and not have to dig for them. :) I agree that attitude makes all the difference.
