GOT A LITTLE ATTITUDE???

First of all we must start defining that attitude is a state of: manner, disposition, feeling, position, etc.

This means the way a person views something or tends to behave.

Attitude should be more important than facts. It should be even more important than the past, the money, the circumstances. Attitude must excel against feelings of failure, or successes.

It is more important than appearance, or skill. It will make or break a company. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. The only thing we can do is realize that we will show our attitude, everyday, everywhere by the way we act...  We are in charge of our Attitudes.”

Attitude can keep us going or fall in our progress. When our attitude is right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for us.”

Positive attitude helps to handle more easily with the daily affairs of life. It brings optimism into our life, and makes it easier to avoid worry and negative thinking.

If we adopt attitude as a way of life, it will bring constructive changes into our life, and makes them happier, brighter and more successful. With a positive attitude we see the bright side of life, become optimistic and expect the best to happen. It is certainly a state of mind that is well worth developing and strengthening.

For me attitude is when you decide how to behave or what mask you will use as a personality to face the world and have courage to deal with the people and with yourself everyday because is important to be healthy in body and in mind so this is a point of view about a situation and it has three components made up of:

• What you think.
• What you do.
• What you feel.

No matter what situation you are in you always have certain thoughts about it. You also have an emotional response to it, and you behave a certain way in it. To begin changing your attitude you either change your thinking, the way you act, or the way you feel. Two of these choices are easier to influence than the third.

You must begin with either your thinking or your behavior over which you have more control. The secret in effectively changing your emotions is knowing that feelings, thoughts, and behaviors are all related. When you change one of them (for example, thinking) the other two (feelings and behavior) will change as well.

Since it is easier to get a "grasp" on thoughts and behavior this is the place to begin your work of staying resilient. Change what you think! Change what you do! The emotions will change and you will be creating resiliency.

Also attitude is a mental position relative to a way of thinking or being. The current popular usage of attitude implies a negative mind set, a "chip on the shoulder" behavior, and an inner anger toward the prevailing majority of thought.

From a personal development standpoint, attitude is broader than this popular usage. A positive attitude implies a way of thinking that is predominantly positive and optimistic. The opposite inclination, a negative attitude is predominantly pessimistic.

 Example: Though Jeremy was ashamed that he had alienated his friends by whining and complaining, he decided to adopt a positive attitude about his ability to reverse this behavior and regain friendships lost. He was confident that his apologies and changed behavior would regain the friendships

Some ways of manifesting positive attitude:

     Positive thinking.

Attitude can make you:

     Choose to be and stay optimistic.
     Find reasons to smile more often.
