About This Quote

A wise man once said, “If you don’t like the way things are, change it. If you can’t change it, accept it. If you can’t accept it, change your attitude.” That wise man was my father, and he used to say there are two kinds of people: the noticers and the noticed. The noticers sit around waiting for some disaster to happen so they can prove that they were right. The noticed on the other hand go out and make things happen.
