Attitude:-
Some of the
greatest buildings have the strongest foundations. Just like a
great building stands on a strong foundation, so does success.
In addition, the foundation of success is ‘attitude’
William James of Harvard
University said, “The greatest discovery of my generation is
that human beings can alter their lives by altering their
attitudes of mind”
If we have positive experience with
a person, our attitude towards him because positive and vice
versa.
How to
recognize people with a positive attitude?
Just
like an absence of ill health does not equal good health, an
absence of negativity alone dose not make a person positive.
People with positive attitude are
always caring, confident, patient and humble. They have high
expectations of themselves and others. They anticipate positive
outcomes. A person with a positive attitude is like the fruit of
all seasons.

The
consequence of a negative attitude:
People with a negative attitude
have a hard time keeping friendship, jobs, marriage and
relationships.
Their attitude leads to – bitterness
– ill health – a purposeless life high stress level for
themselves and others.
They create a negative environment
at home, work, and become a liability to society.
They also pass on their negative
behavior to others around them and to future generations.
When
we become aware of our negative attitude, why don’t we change?
Human
nature generally resists change. Change is uncomfortable.
Regardless of its positive or negative effect, change is
stressful. Sometimes we get so comfortable with our negativity
what even when the change is for the positive. We do not want to
accept it. We like to stay with the negative.
Steps to
building a positive attitude:
During childhood, we form attitudes
that last a lifetime. Undoubtedly, it would be a lot easier and
better to have acquired a positive attitude during our formative
years. Doesn’t that mean if we acquire a negative attitude,
whether by design or by default, we are struck with it? Of
course not. Can we change? Yes. Is it easy? Not at all. |
