Attitude
By Charles Swindoll

"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 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% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And
so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes."
