Over the years I have been convinced that the attitude we have goes a long in determining our success as leaders. We may not always control what happens to us, but we are in charge of how we react.

My friend Mark Sanborn says, “”Freds know that one of the most exciting things about life is that we awake each day with the ability to reinvent ourselves. No matter what happened yesterday, today is a new day. While we can’t deny the struggles and setbacks, neither should we be restrained by them.” What a powerful thought.

That we will face struggles is a given. But our attitude should be predictably positive! How is your attitude?
