Welcome to the Daily Quote – I'm Andrew McGivern.Today's quote comes from Irving Berlin, the legendary composer who wrote "White Christmas," "God Bless America," and hundreds of other American classics.He said:"Life is 10 percent what you make it, and 90 percent how you take it."Ten percent what you make it. Ninety percent how you take it.That ratio is important. Berlin's not saying what happens to you doesn't matter. That's the ten percent. It matters.But the ninety percent? That's entirely up to you. That's your response. Your interpretation. Your attitude toward what happened.Most people have this backwards. They think life is 90 percent circumstances and maybe 10 percent attitude. They believe their happiness depends almost entirely on external events.But Berlin lived through poverty, prejudice, and personal tragedy. He knew better. He knew that what happens to you is far less important than how you respond to what happens.Two people can experience the same setback. One person sees it as the end. The other sees it as a redirection. Same event. Ten percent. Different response. Ninety percent. Completely different outcome.You get rejected from a job. You can take it as "I'm not good enough" or "That wasn't the right fit." Same rejection. Different interpretation. Different future.You face a challenge. You can take it as "This is impossible" or "This is interesting." Same challenge. Different attitude. Different result.Berlin's showing us where our power actually lives. Not in controlling what happens – that's only ten percent. But in controlling how we respond – that's ninety percent.So here's the question: What's happening in your life right now that you're letting control your attitude?Remember – that's only ten percent. You get ninety percent. That's where your power is.How will you take it?That's it for today. I'm Andrew McGivern – I'll see you in the next one with another Daily Quote.
