Swindoll, Charles quotes

American Pastor Author


The swift wind of compromise is a lot more devastating than the sudden jolt of misfortune.
Swindoll, Charles
Compromise

Stand still... and refuse to retreat. Look at it as God looks at it and draw upon His power to hold up under the blast.
Swindoll, Charles
Difficulties

A family is a place where principles are hammered and honed on the anvil of everyday living.
Swindoll, Charles
Family

The remarkable thing is, we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
Swindoll, Charles
Attitude

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.
Swindoll, Charles
Attitude

I believe the single most significant decision I can make on a day-to-day basis is my choice of attitude. It is more important than my past, my education, my bankroll, my successes or failures, fame or pain, what other people think of me or say about me, my circumstances, or my position. Attitude keeps me going or cripples my progress. It alone fuels my fire or assaults my hope. When my attitudes are right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me.
Swindoll, Charles
Attitude

Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.
Swindoll, Charles
Attitude

Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitudes toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it.
Swindoll, Charles
Attitude

We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
Swindoll, Charles
Attitude

When I think of vision, I have in mind the ability to see above and beyond the majority.
