Of
all the things
you wear,
your expression
is the most important.
Janet Lane |

The
world has a way of giving what is demanded of it. If you are
frightened
and look for failure and poverty, you will get them, no matter
how hard
you may try to succeed. Lack of faith in yourself, in what
life will do for you,
cuts you off from the good things of the
world. Expect victory and you make victory.

What many
people don't realize is that we can change our attitudes
towards life. It takes some work, but it can be done. The more
we accept other people and their faults and quirks, the less
judgmental we become. The more we decide to share the goodness
that's within us, the less selfish we become, and the less likely we
are to hoard or hang on to material things. The more we learn
about other people's emotional or physical problems, the more
understanding and compassionate we become. Your
attitude is
one of your gifts to the world, all day, every day. What kind of
gift do you give? And is it a gift that remains steady
no matter what happens to you?

A
positive attitude may not solve all your problems,
but it will
annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

The
principle of life is that life responds
by corresponding;
your life
becomes
the thing you have decided it shall be.
Raymond Charles
Barker
There is very
little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big
difference. The little difference is attitude.
W. Clement Stone |

Dream
lofty dreams, and as you dream,
so shall you become.
Your vision is
the promise of what you shall at last unveil.

The
way in which we think of ourselves
has everything to do with how our world
sees us.

There
are no menial jobs,

I am happy and
content

The happiness
of your
life depends upon the quality
of your thoughts. . .
take care that
you entertain
no notions unsuitable to virtue
and reasonable nature.
Marcus
Aurelius

Our
minds can shape the
way a thing
will be because
we act according
to our expectations.
Federico
Fellini |
Everything depends on attitude. We are ambitious or
lazy, enthusiastic
or dull, loyal or undependable, according to our attitude. We get good
grades or poor grades--according to our attitudes. Discouragement is an
attitude. Lack of industry is an attitude. Failure to follow instructions
is an attitude.
Sterling W. Sill |
It is easy
enough to be pleasant,
when life flows by like a song.
But the person worthwhile
is one who will smile,
when everything else goes wrong.
Ella Wheeler
Wilcox |
A
pessimist is one who makes difficulties of
his or her opportunities;
an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his or her
difficulties.
Harry
S. Truman |
The
optimist proclaims that we live in
the best of all
possible worlds;
and the pessimist fears this is true.
James
Branch Cabell |
No life is so
hard that you can't make it easier
by the way you take it.
Ellen Glasgow |

That
the birds of worry and care
fly above your head,
this you cannot
change.
But that they build nests in your hair,
this you can
prevent.

Ability
is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you
do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.
Lou

Your
attitude is your choice. It always is. We live in an
age that has developed
the art of shifting blame to very high
levels, and sometimes we get caught up
in
that same
tendency. "Well, if you had my job you wouldn't be so
positive." "If
you had my kids, you wouldn't feel
so good." "If only my boss were different,
I
could
be a positive person." In other words, "My bad
attitude is not my fault!"
The truth is, however, your attitude and mine are
always our choice. No matter
how bad things are, no one can
force you to have a bad attitude if you don't
want to. Now
that should come as really good news because it says our
attitudes don't have to be victims of our circumstances or of
other
people. We choose our responses.

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 percent what happens to me
and 90 percent how I react to it. And so it is with you. . .
we are in charge of our attitudes.

Everything
in the world we want to do or get done, we must do with
and
through people. Every dollar we will ever earn must come
from
people. The person we love, and with whom we want to
spend the rest
of our life, is a human being with whom we must
interact. Our children
are individuals, each different from
any other person who ever lived. And
what affects them most
is our attitude--the loving kindness they see
and feel whenever we
are around them.
If you'll begin to develop and maintain an attitude
that says yes to life
and the world, you'll be astonished at the
changes you'll see.

If
you expect nothing, you're apt to be surprised. You'll get it.

You can't
always control circumstances. However, you can always
control your attitude, approach, and response. Your options are to
complain or to look ahead and figure out how to make the situation better.

People

There are two types
of people--those who come into a room and say,
"Well, here I am!" and those who come in and say, "Ah,
there you are."
Frederick L. Collins |

Your
mental attitude is something you can control outright and you must
use self-discipline until you create a Positive Mental Attitude--your
mental attitude attracts to you everything that makes you what you are.
Napoleon Hill |

When you choose to be pleasant and positive in the way
you treat others,
you have also chosen, in most cases, how you are going to be treated by
others.
