About Us
The longer I live, the more I realize
the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to
me, is more important 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
everyday regarding the attitude we embrace
for that day. We cannot change our past … we
cannot change the fact that people 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. Author
