"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 success, than what other
people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance,
gift, 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 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. "
