“Attitudes are more important than facts”

Stuck in a situation that has you down? Feeling like the world is out to get you? Losing confidence in your abilities at school, work, or in a relationship? Well, the key to any troubling situation is to maintain a positive attitude. Any fact facing us, however difficult, even seemingly hopeless, is not as important as our attitude toward that fact. How you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You may permit a fact to overwhelm you mentally before you actually start to deal with it. On the other hand, a confident and optimistic thought pattern can modify or overcome the fact altogether.
If you mentally visualize and affirm and reaffirm your assets and keep your thoughts on them, emphasizing them to the fullest extent, you will rise out of any difficulty regardless of what it may be.
