Attitude

by Anita Mondragon
 
As many of you know, my refrigerator is full of quotes, bible verses, and phrases that have changed my perspective about life.  The following is a quote by Chuck Swindoll.  At this time, when the world is in an uproar and life is uncertain, this particular quote surely fits the situation of our circumstances!  Take a look… 
 
“Attitude”
 
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.  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, 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 attitude.” -Chuck Swindoll
