attitude



The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.

It is more important that 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.

The remarkable thing is - we have a choice every day of our lives regarding the attitude we 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’m 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.

Character or attitude is bending... i think time shapes us... makes us better or sometimes even worst... one thing i always believe is that nothing is constant in this world.. people change.. character fades if you let it to... sometimes we might loose grip of the things we believe in... a lil cynic huh? :)

hahaha. yea, but just a lil bit. change is the only permanent thing in this world,. It's really up to us if we want to let this "change" affect us. We could stick with our beliefs or go with the flow.

I may never be the person a lot of people might want me to be but, I can be the person you wanted me to be why?... Coz my life could remarkably change only for one reason..
