Attitude
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, say, or do.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, and a home.
The remarkable1 thing is we have a choice every day 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 inevitable2. The only thing we can do is to 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.
伴随岁月的增长，我愈加意识到态度对生活的强大影响力。
对我而言，态度比行动要紧，比历程、教育、资金、环境、失败、成功，比大家能想到或做到的任何事或物，都要要紧。
态度比外表、天分、方法愈加要紧，它可以打造起公司、教堂和家庭，也可以使之毁灭。
可贵的是，天天大家都有机会选择以何种态度度过这一天。
大家不可以改变大家的过去，不可以改变大家会以某种特定的方法去做事这一事实。大家唯一能做的就是把握大家的态度。
我坚信，生命中所发生的种种只占据我生命的10％，而另外的90％则是由我怎么样对其做出反应所决定的。所以，真的起决定用途的是你一个人。大家应付我们的态度负责。
