TGIF Charles Swindoll #1

 

 

imageThere is a chance of some rain today and over the weekend.  There is a little mist in the air which is delicious.  Yea, we bitch about the cold and then it turns hot and we bitch about that.  We bitch about the rain and the it turns dry and scary and we bitch about that.  Yup.  Anyway I just found this quote tucked away in one of my Bibles and I’m going to plug this in for a TGIF post and give myself a break.  It’s entitled Attitude and is by Charles Swindoll.

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on my life.  Attitude, to me, is more 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 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 enevitable.  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.”

Yup, now I’m off to the hospital with Jennifer to work on our cancer hobbies.  My turn to drive today and we are allowing a little extra time to goof around.  Maybe we will work on our attitudes!  Thanks so much for being here with us, generous attitude loves, Felipe.

  1. Hola PFFelipe!

    If my kids and grandkids had a dollar for every time I’ve preached to them “ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING”, they could retire now and take care of me :). Sometimes the little smart alecks will say, “But Grampa, you just told us yesterday that LEADERSHIP was everything”. And Wise Ol’ Grampa responds, “Attitude leads to Leadership”. Ain’t it great to be old and smart 🙂
