The mystery of Hyman's Seafood's Motto

While cleaning out my Dad’s office, I ran across this “Motto” in many places, posted all over his office, in his desk drawer and in some old folders from approximately 1968. It reads………

Hyman’s Seafood’s Motto

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important 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 everyday regarding the attitude we embrace for that day. We cannot change our past… we cannot change the fact that people 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.

I enjoyed reading the motto and I understood why my dad liked it so much that he had posted it in so many places.

I was curious who this Hyman’s Seafood was and after a quick Google search I found it to be a popular restaurant in Charleston South Carolina… This makes sense because in the late 60’s my family lived in South Carolina. Hyman’s Seafood is on Facebook now and has many fans… Hyman's Seafood Facebook Page
Also curious about the author, my search revealed…. Chuck Swindoll is an evangelical Christian pastor, author, educator, and radio preacher. Wiki- Charles Swindoll
And if you like this quote, rather than post it all over your office, you can now see it on youtube….. Attitude
Enjoy!
