The Stuff That Really Matters Most: Attitude

Attitude remains the most powerful tool in the world. You can change your world by changing your attitude. So, be the change you want to see in the world. Change your attitude and the world changes.

Here are a collection of quotes on attitude that really move me.

"People can alter their lives by altering their attitudes. " William James

"I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“The last and ultimate freedom is to choose your attitude under any circumstances” – Victor Frankl

“Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure.” ~Norman Vincent Peale

“Why should we worry about what others think of us, do we have more confidence in their opinions than we do our own?” ~Brigham Young

“Could we change our attitude, we should not only see life differently, but life itself would come to be different.” ~Katherine Mansfield

"A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck." - James A. Garfield

"If the wind will not serve, take to the oars."  "Destitutus ventis, remos adhibe" - Latin Proverb

“The key to success is to determine what it is that you most enjoy doing, and then find a way to make a good living doing it.” ~Napoleon Hill

‎"Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it." ~Lou Holtz

“Heaven on earth is a choice you must make, not a place we must find.” ~Wayne Dyer

“Never tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon.” Joshua Hatch
  
“If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.” ~African Proverb
