ATTITUDE – YOUR TICKET TO SUCCESS
As I was conducting the Attitude Seminar recently, I became particularly aware of the absolute truth of our attitude being our ticket to success. Attitude is powerful! It not only impacts how we behave toward others but has just as much influence on how they behave toward us. To check the truth of this statement just observe how people treat you differently when you approach them after having climbed out of the wrong side of your bed one morning as compared to encountering them whilst feeling on ‘top of the world’.

Although it frequently does not feel this way, attitude is a choice. No matter how difficult the situation you find yourself in, you always have a choice as to how you respond to it. People like Nelson Mandela, Victor Frankl and more recently and closer to home, our Tasmanian Miners and little Sophie Delezio are great examples to confirm this truth. The choices you make regarding your attitude every moment of every day will either empower or disempower you.
THE AWESOME POWER OF ATTITUDE
Attitude determines perspective – Imagine how differently you see the same object when you view it from the foundation of an open and accepting mind as opposed to looking at it from a critical and judgmental platform.

Attitude affects reality – How do people you like behave towards you? What response do you get from those you dislike? How might this affect your reality if this person were your boss, your employee, your child, your mother-in-law?

Attitude attracts people who are just like you – What better motive to undertake whatever attitude adjustment you might need?

Attitudes are contagious – What a responsibility! Let’s ask ourselves daily how we are infecting our loved ones or anyone else with whom we connect.

A question for you? Do you see the glass of your life half empty or half full?
 
EMPOWERING ATTITUDES IN ACTION
AN ATTITUDE OF PURPOSE – What is your reason for existence? What visions and dreams do you have for your life? Finding answers to these questions will help you immeasurably in keeping a positive and empowering attitude even in the midst of life’s storms.

AN ATTITUDE OF LEARNING – How exciting to know that life is full of wonderful discoveries and that no matter how old we might grow, we will never, ever get to the stage where our learning will be completed.

AN ATTITUDE OF POSITIVE EXPECTATION – Have you ever felt like a heavy weight is hovering around the corner, just waiting to fall on you? Yes, bad things do happen to good people. True, but who can influence the course of events through fearful and anxious anticipation? No-one! So, why not just enjoy the good times and determine to deal with the bad if and when they come.

AN ATTITUDE OF PATIENCE - One of the most interesting principles in life is the principle of sowing and reaping. Just as it takes time for wheat to grow to harvest, so do our hopes, dreams and the visions we have for our lives.

AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE – If you want a quick and simple recipe to turn around your life, just develop an attitude of gratitude. This attitude, beyond all others is your personal guarantee for happiness, satisfaction and joy.

AN ATTITUDE OF GENEROSITY - There is little that will give you a greater sense of pleasure than when you are sharing from your abundance. How lucky and blessed we are when we have more than we need. What could be better than to see the happy smile of the recipient of our generosity.

How about putting these empowering attitudes to the test? Why not try and see what will happen to YOUR life as a result. Enjoy the process!

WORDS OF WISDOM
So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will they soon become inevitable. - (Christopher Reeve)
