Remember that when you leave this Earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received, only what you have given, a full heart enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage. -St. Francis of Assisi

Attitude

I often find quotes that I like to share. I have bits of paper around and want to save the quotes before I throw them away, the blog is a good place to keep them.

It seems lately that everyone is complaining that the government is doing something wrong. I don't like to be negative and I think that if a great majority of us were more positive the energy of the country could change.

"We're at a moment when things
could get worse.
A timely dose of confidence
is overdue."

Attitude Adjustment

Ok, I am not a negative person, I usually don't worry about things. I have always been good at coming up with solutions and making adjustments to whatever comes my way.

When I think about some of my recent blogs, I feel like I have been whining and worrying. I think the weather has made me impatient for the changes that I am making.
I wanted something to blame when things aren't moving along fast enough.


  As long as I continue to work towards my goal,
 I need to let things fall into place and happen on their own time.

Normally I don't watch much TV, in fact I think it's been off for about two weeks, until today. I usually just have the radio on all day long.  Now I'm watching all of the hype about the weather. Is it better for them to tell us ahead of time, or is it better to just let it happen?

I have a lot to be thankful for,
so I am going back to being grateful for what I have.

The truth is that most of the things
you'll end up worrying about
will work themselves out
regardless of how much you worry.

Quotes

Change your thoughts
and you change the world.

For success,
attitude is equally as important
as ability.

Letting go of possessions
bares the endless
possibilities of living

Climb High,
Climb Far
Your goal, the sky
Your aim, the stars

Determination
 is at the heart
of any
great achievement

Write It Down
Make It Happen
Live Your Dreams

Attitude

This blog and all of the wonderful feedback has motivated me to get moving.  I want my house sold and to be on the road before the next winter in Chicago.  I have spent too much time sitting around and feeling sorry for myself. I have been sorting and purging this morning. I have tons of little quotes and notes, etc. I'm going to post some of them here before throwing them away, that way I can go back and read them without having a lot of clutter.

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
