"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 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% how I react to it. And so it is with you ...we are in charge of our attitudes."
-- Charles Swindoll
American author, pastor
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold on too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
"It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about."

"Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for
everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation."

There is nothing you can do about the national economy, but there is alot that you can do about your personal economy. Get your attitude right, and chances are dramatically higher that your economic condition will be good.
- Zig Ziglar
Perhaps the most important thing we can
undertake toward the reduction of fear
is to make it easier for people to
accept themselves, to like themselves.

From the state of a man's heart
proceed the conditions of his life;
his thoughts blossom into deeds,
and his deeds bear the fruitage
of character and destiny
-- James Allen, "As The Man Thinketh"
Start small and set a realistic goal. Habits are difficult to change. Set up a short term goal be it weekly or daily. Baby steps are the key.
"The person who sends out positive thoughts
activates the world around him positively
and draws back to himself positive results."
When you get up in the morning, remind yourself of 3 positive things you can do for that day. Then set out to accomplish them.
The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
-- George Bernard Shaw
"There is real magic in enthusiasm. It spells the difference between mediocrity and accomplishment."
-- Norman Vincent Peale
