Some of my favorite quotes regarding attitude are from author Charles Swindoll:
"The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday 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% of
how I react to it. And so it is with you . . . We are in charge of our attitude."
When we fight against today, the things we cannot change, we will never win. But when we accept the inevitable and accept that we get to make a conscious choice how we will process what happens, that is the meaning we attach to what happens, then everything changes.
It seems to me that the foundation stones of a healthy life are attitude and belief. And I truly do know that I am in control of both! One of my favorite motivational speakers, Zig Zigler, is fond of referring to an attitude adjustment as a "check up from the neck up!"
However stated, I truly do know that we can take control of our attitude . . . not once in a while but all the time.
I apologize to regular readers for the inactive status of this blog in the last three months. I promise there will be frequent updates in the future.
