Muir’s Morning Motivational Minute

‘You can’t have a good day with a bad attitude, and you can’t have a bad day with a good attitude.’

The greatest definition I’ve ever heard about attitude, I repeat parts of it on a regular basis, comes from author and minister Charles Swindoll. I have this on a sign above my desk. It reads:

‘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, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, than being gifted or skilled. It will make or break a company, a church or a home. The remarkable thing is that 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 us and 90 percent how we react to it. And so it is with you … you are in charge of your attitude.’

God’s blessings to you on this day! Have a great Sunday and a blessed day!
