'Everything can be
taken from a man but one thing; the last of the human
freedomsâ??to choose one's attitude
in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.' - Viktor
Frankl
Attitude IS
everything. Yes, Everything.
It is more vital than
events. It's more important than what's happened. Because attitude
determines whether we are happy or unhappy, fulfilled or empty, the
positive perspective assures us that we can never fail. A hopeful
attitude guarantees internal success. Attitude- the altitude adjuster
determines whether we fly high or low, crash or soar, glide or slide.
Anybody can have a
positive attitude when things are going well. What really matters is
its how you act when things are going badly that determines the
strength of your character. An appropriate attitude means feeling
hopeful in challenging times. Stop yourself. Count your blessings.
Look for the good.
Here are the
magnificent 7 ways to improve your attitude:
Choose to be
Enthusiastic
Corporate presidents
voted it the most valuable personality trait. It's the biggest single
factor in successful selling. Think enthusiastically. Talk
enthusiastically. Become enthusiastic by acting enthusiastic. Your
thoughts and actions establish your level of enthusiasm.
Be Alive to Everything
You Do
Walk fast. Put a
bounce in your step. A vigorous, hearty handshake indicates you are
glad to be alive and happy to be with the other person. A good smile
radiates enthusiasm. Put spirit into your speech by varying the tempo,
raising and lowering the pitch, changing the tone and modulation.
Force yourself to act with enthusiasm, and soon you will feel
enthusiastic.
Broadcast Good News
No one ever made a
friend or accomplished anything worthwhile by transmitting bad news.
Good news, on the other hand, promotes good will and spreads
enthusiasm. The message, 'Hey! I've got good news' gets the attention
of everyone. Take sunshine to school or work. Always aim to make the
person you talk to feel better than they otherwise
would.
The Power of
Visualization
Imagination powerfully
influences successful outcomes. When imagination and willpower
compete, the imagination always wins. Force of will never keep you
striving for success, but proper visualization will. All peak
performers visualize success. Before you try to do anything, close
your eyes and visualize yourself doing it well.
Positive Self-Talk
What did you say to
yourself today? Did you moan and groan about everyone at school or
work? Did you complain about your parents to your best friend? What we
think is 100% reflected in how we feel. If all we think about is
negative thoughts, our actions will be negative. Remember 'I'm a 10!
I'm Healthy! Wealthy! Happy! I do what I ought to do, when I ought to
do it, whether I want to or not! No Debate! I love me!'
Love Others
How can we become more
loving? By bringing encouragement, optimism, and hope to all that we
meet. By helping others feel comfortable in our presence; by spreading
joy and goodwill; by being concerned about the wishes and desires of
others; by understanding, caring, accepting, and forgiving; by
becoming more concerned about helping others achieve their individual
desires.
