Attitude

Well, this one is going to be short, sweet and to the point!  I believe in having a good attitude.  Attitude is everything.  It can make or break your day, your life, your relationships, your career, your dreams, your personal growth….everything!  I heard a saying WAY back in jr. high school…..Attitude, it’s 10% what happens to you and 90% how you deal with it!  I love that!  I believe that.  The Word of God tells us to “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer” - Romans 12:12.  I love that too!

I recently received the following in an email and I’ve read something similar to it before, but I think this is an excellent example of having a good attitude no matter what life throws your way!

There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
Well,’ she said, ‘I think I’ll braid my hair today?’  So she did and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.  ‘H-M-M,’ she said, ‘I think I’ll part my hair down the middle today?’  So she did and she had a grand day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.  ‘Well,’ she said, ‘today I’m going to wear my hair in a pony tail.’ So she did and she had a fun, fun day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn’t a single hair on her head.
‘YEA!’ she exclaimed, ‘I don’t have to fix my hair today!’
Attitude is everything.  Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly…….
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass.
It’s about learning to dance in the rain.

That’s what I’m talkin’ about!  I have a real life good attitude example in my grandmother.  I hope that I am able to be so peaceful and positive  when I am approaching the end of my days in this life, as well!

A positive attitude can make anything a little bit better or a little bit easier or a little bit more manageable….and a lot of the time, it does more than that!  It can simply make things in life great!

So, make sure you have a good attitude today!
