What's with the attitude?


Okay, I have to admit, I find myself saying that to my daughter sometimes. She's three and she's got this new attitude that she can do EVERYTHING all by herself. Some things she can, some things she can't, but it got me to thinking about the power of attitude.


"A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort." ~Herm Albright, quoted in Reader's Digest, June 1995


The beginning of every change in my life and of every success that I've seen has been by first developing the attitude about it that I could achieve that which I set out to do.


First graduating from Niagara, then Queen's, then caring for a newborn premature baby, then opening a home daycare. The obstacles and challenges I've seen have been plenty. But my attitude was always of perseverance and faith.


I know for a fact that my energy and positive attitude did get on hubby's nerves at times. But hey, it was worth it for sure.
