“Attitude is Everything”From: Charles Swindoll
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me, is more than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think, say or do. It is more important than appearance, inherited attributes or skill. It will make or break a company...a person...a home.
“Attitude is Everything”From: Charles Swindoll
The remarkable thing is that we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play the one unknown card 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.
“Attitude is Everything”From: Charles Swindoll
And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes.
“Attitude is Everything”
