Attitude

The longer I live, the more I can see, the impact of attitude on you, and on me. It has more importance than the past, the power of it is truly vast. More powerful than education, circumstance, or magistration. More than failure, or success, it builds upon what we express. It has more power than appearance or skill, can make or break a company at will. It can build up a church, or tear down a home, and destroy everything that we own. It can divide a Country, or level a Nation, It's all in the matter of orchestration. But we have a choice in what we might say, embracing our attitude in facing each day. Though we cannot change those things that must be, we can maneuver around things that we see. As a great many things in life may be fact, ninty per cent is how we react. And no matter what in our lives may intrude, we are in charge of our attitude.

Additional Notes:
I know that the lines are uneven, but It just worked out that way.
