I found this story on the web, and just had to share!
“There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head. ”Well,” she said, ” I think I’ll braid my hair today.” So she did, and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head. ”Hmmm,” she said, “I think I’ll part my hair in the middle today.” So she did and she had a grand day.
When she woke up the next day, she looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head. ”Well,” she said, “today I’m going to wear my hair in a pony tail.” So she did and she had a fun, fun day.”
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn’t a single hair on her head. ”Yeah!” she exclaimed. “I don’t have to fix my hair today.”
YOU have the POWER to control your attitude! What a wonderful power to own!
The key to developing your attitude is an understanding that attitude is a skill to be developed, not an emotion. Too many people don’t understand that “your attitude” and “your happines” is something you work on every day for the rest of you life.
Tom, right on! Just like we must work on our bodies every day if we want them to be healthy, so we must work on our attitude to ensure it is a positive one. J
