Ways to Live in Moment: Attitude

"It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect It's successful outcome." -William James




Recently I received a great email from work that talks about “Attitude”. This message provided a great reflection and suggestion for me; and I will say that it can help adjust and receive things in a more positive way.  Therefor, I would like to share this message with all of you.

Here We Go…

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 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% how I react to it. And so it is with you…we are in charge of our Attitudes.”              ~Pastor Charles Swindoll

"Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy; meditate on these things."

 To Practice This Thought:


Explore different perspectives – the city is more beautiful when seen from above and so is the country. Exploring different perspectives does not always change things, but it always changes us. We begin to feel, think and see with different eyes, and with this spirit we become stronger and more positive.   
Enjoy!
