Attitude
The longer I live
The more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude, to me, 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,
Giftedness or skill.
It will make or break an organization,
A school, 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 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.

Thank you so much for posting the Charles Swindell writing. I too needed to read that today. It is very good. Attitude is very important to our recovery. thank you again

Amazing! Thank you I needed that!

Honestly, that really helped me today...I've had a pretty bad attitude all day, alot prementrual, but still, that shouldn't be a factor in my attitude.
Thank you for that!

This was very helpful to me today as I am truly working on attitude and am seeing how much of an impact it has on others as well as on myself.

Great post!!
