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 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, Pastor
隨著我活得越久，我越發瞭解到態度對人生的影響。
態度，對我而言，比事實更重要。它比你的過去重要，它比你的教育程度重要，它比你的財富重要，它比你周遭的環境重要，它比你的成功和失敗重要，它比別人對你的想法或說法或所作所為還要重要。它比你的外貌、天賦、技能更為重要。它可以建立或是摧毀一間公司… 一座教堂… 一個家庭。
而值得注意的是，我們每一天都可以選擇用什麼樣的態度來擁抱這一天。我們不能改變我們的過往… 我們不能改變某人對某事的反應，我們不能改變哪些無可必免的。我們唯一能做的，就是彈奏好我們所擁有的那根弦，而那根弦，就是我們的態度… 我相信人生就是 10% 發生在我身上的事，另外 90% 是我對這些事的反應。
你們的人生也是如此，我們掌控我們自己的態度。
