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, then circumstances, than failures, than
successes, than what other people think, 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 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.
And so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitudes
