I recently spent some time at my mom’s house and while sitting in her kitchen, taped on her wall was an 8½-by-11-inch white piece of paper with ATTITUDE written across the top. Below was a quote written by a gentleman named Charles Swindoll. 

Whether you are an employer, an employee or someone who stays home to raise a family, ask yourself: “Are you in charge of your attitude”?    

"Attitude," by Charles Swindoll
“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.
