Attitude is defined as the way we think or feel about something. Our attitudes we have right now in the present are made up of the past accumulation of our thoughts and our beliefs. We have the power right now in this moment to start the process of consciously changing our attitude. Shift your attitude to start being an optimistic and positive person instead of being a pessimistic and negative person, and your life will change for the better.

Attitude is either going to take you to your major aim or it is going to stop you. It is in this one little thing that makes all the difference. You can begin to change your attitude by programming your mind with positive information, not negative information which is primarily marketed through mainstream media. It is as simple as seeking out positive information and positive people, and keeping away negative people and negative information in in our lives.

THE DIFFERENCE THAT ATTITUDE MAKES

Attitude is an outward reflection of an inner state of mind. We all carry with us an internal attitude of mind that shows itself to the world through our facial expressions, speech, presence and ultimately our actions. Attitude is your inner compass that directs the course of your life. Simply put, have a shitty attitude and you’ll have a shitty life. Have an amazing attitude and you’ll have an amazing life. I’m not talking about external things here, I’m talking about the stuff that matters which is internal. Understand ultimately that it is you who is the marker and creator of your attitude, not the world around. Viktor E. Frankl the famous psychiatrist had this revelation surround by death and hopelessness in a NAZI concentration camp. “Everything can be taken from a man but one; the last of human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

ATTITUDES THROUGHOUT THE DAY

When you wake up in the morning, what’s the first thought you have about the day?

When you leave home for work, what thoughts do you have?

When you on the job and getting through the day, what are you constantly thinking about?

When you finish a hard days work, what’s going through your mind?

When you rest your head on that pillow at the end of the day, what are your thoughts about the day you had?

The reason I am asking you the above questions about your thoughts during the day is because thoughts and attitude are one of the same. As an attitude is a state of mind and thoughts make the mind, you can see that thoughts and attitude reside in the same place. When you wake up in the morning, you control the thoughts you think about? You can direct your mind towards gratitude first about receiving another day on planet earth. You can think about how productive today is going to be. When you leave home for work, you can be grateful you have a job to go that provides the life you have and think about what you want out of today. When you’re on the job you want to be thinking about doing your best. When you finish work you want to know that you gave it your best. And at the end of a day when you lay your head on that pillow at night, you know that the day you had reflected the thoughts you carried in your head which in turn created your attitude. Remember tomorrow is a new day and you choose your attitude.
