Attitudes

“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 will make or break a company…a church…a home [or team]. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot chance 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 lay on the one string we have, and that is 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.”

Charles Swindoll

The greatest discovery of our generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. As you think…so shall you be.

William James
The father of American Psychology
