Favorite Quote:   "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 and say. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we 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 the one string we have and that is our attitude ... I am convinced that life is 10 percent of what happen to you and 90 percent of how you react to it. And so it is with you ... we are in charge of our Attitudes."

Favorite Band/Music:   The Beatles
