Attitude

I shared a short story about Attitude at the American Cancer Society’s annual Reach to Recovery training held in Bismarck, ND, on April 26, 2008.  I felt is was so appropriate because all the women attending  were cancer survivors and their attitudes are truly incredible!

There once was a women who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.

Well, she said, “I think I’ll braid my hair today?”  So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.

“H-M-M,” she said, “I think I’ll part my hair down the middle today?”  So she did and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed she had only one hair on her head.

“Well,” she said, “today I’m going to wear my hair in a pony tail.”  So she did and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day he work up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn’t a single hair  on her head.

“YEA!” she exclaimed, “I don’t have to fix my hair today!”

Attitude is everything.
