Attitude is Everything


I am a firm believer in that much-used saying. We don’t always have the power to change our circumstances, but we do have the power to change our attitudes. When we change our attitude to reflect love, hope and faith, it can make all the difference in the world!
I came across this quote by Charles Swindoll, Christian author, and I wanted to share it with you.

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 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 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.
