Whether it is a great pitch or a lousy pitch the determining factor in a batter getting a hit is his swing.
The same is true for every component of life. We’ve all heard the phrase make lemonade out of lemons. Simply put the truth of life is how we react to conditions we experience is more important than the conditions we are exposed to.
People win great fortunes and squander it away on debauchery and excess. They lose friends and family members over lifestyle changes while others struggling in poverty enjoy happy productive lives.
This truth also sheds light on the fact that happiness, success and joy comes from within not from external conditions, yet so many of us are seeking improved conditions with the hopes that they will bring us joy.
Every experience of life is determined by your swing. Step up to the batters box and swing for the fences.
