I got this poem in health at the beginning of the trimester. It isn't funny like the other hand outs, but I liked it.
ATTITUDE
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% what
Happens to me and 90%
How I react to it.
And so it is with you...
We are in charge of our attitudes.
ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING!
