I needed to remind myself AGAIN that this year I have decided not to allow someone to control my attitude. So I am re-posting this. That power belongs to me. I have heard people (myself included) say "She made me so mad I could scream". The truth is that no one should make us feel anything. It is our choice what we feel and how we respond to things.
Jim Rohn wrote in Attitude is Everything at http://www.appleseeds.org/rohn-attitude.htm
If we want to receive the rewards the future holds in trust for us, then we must exercise the most important choice given to us as members of the human race by maintaining total dominion over our attitude. Our attitude is an asset, a treasure of great value, which must be protected accordingly. Beware of the vandals and thieves among us who would injure our positive attitude or seek to steal it away.
Having the right attitude is one of the basics that success requires. The combination of a sound personal philosophy and a positive attitude about ourselves and the world around us gives us an inner strength and a firm resolve that influences all the other areas of our existence.
From now on, I am going to try very, very hard to choose a healthy and positive attitude. I hope you do, too.
For a very long time, no one told African American women that they could fly, so there are very few of them as commercial pilots. This website is for inspiring women to fly. Flying being defined as succeeding. Succeeding defined however you decide. We are simply here to tell you sistergirlfriend, YOU CAN FLY!
