Your attitude declares your conviction. How you act is a clear proof of what you believe in. No matter the situation you face in life, do not conform to it. Don’t let negative thoughts make you act in a negative way. Always respond in a positive manner. Learn to let go of the things you can’t change or control (circle of concern) and focus on the things you have control over (circle of influence).Â
