Bob, my grandfather always told ...no guts...not glory.  I hold those words close to my heart.

What a great blog Bob! Attitude is everything! When we think of ourselves as a failure and complain how everything has been going wrong, then not much will go right. Believing in our abilities does make a huge difference in how we carry ourselves, how we approach a crisis and ultimately succeed.

Bob - you're proof positive that a positive attitude is a healthy way to live. When you live a life conditioned to stay positive, others around you (like your wife) stay with you and they enjoy your company. I can't think of anyone who enjoys the company of a grumpy old (even if they are young) person with a poisoned attitude and bad disposition on life.

This is a great, great post. I always enjoy your positive blog posts and how you comment politely to other people.

Yes Bob - I consider you to be successful and a person others would want to be around.

Bob, Good for you as I feel like attitude determines whether it is a failure or a bump in the road to overcome. I have had plenty of bumps and some of them looked like mountains.

Bob you have the right attitude.  Some failure is expected but it is  your attitude towards these bumps that will determine the outcome as can be seen from the contrast between you and your friend.

Great attitude Bob, and one I live by every day!    Sometimes I'm so scared, but know that will pass as soon as I meet the people, - then all will be fine.   It's the unknown, isn't it?
