‘This Is Water’ An Awesome Video For Graduates On What The Real World Is Like

I wasn't sure what I was in for when I started watching this video. As it unfolded I thought, wow this is really deep stuff. Like seriously this is standing in the shower deep thinking! Its advice to graduating seniors on what awaits you when you get out of high school / college. And it's deep.

“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. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company...a church....a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will 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 string we have, and that is our attitude...I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes.”

-Charles Swindoll
