No matter how big or small of a role model, there's someone watching you. There's a life that you can change. There's a life that you can impact.
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, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.
