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 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 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.

随着岁月的增长，我越来越意识到态度对生活的强大影响力。

对我而言，态度比行动重要，比经历、教育、金钱、环境、失败、成功，比人们能想到或做到的任何事或物，都要重要。

态度比外表、天赋、技巧更加重要，它可以建立起公司、教堂和家庭，也可以使之毁灭。

可贵的是，每天我们都有机会选择以何种态度度过这一天。

我们不能改变我们的过去，不能改变人们会以某种特定的方式去做事这一事实。我们唯一能做的就是把握我们的态度。

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％则是由我如何对其做出反应所决定的。所以，真正起决定作用的是你自己。我们应对自己的态度负责。
