The Importance of A Good Attitude/Rashea@LLO2 Academy
You will know a lot about a person by observing their consistent attitude... good or bad. You can only hide behind a facade for so long. Then the real you will show through... good or bad.
If your character is flawed, then your behavior will be impacted by your flawed character. Our attitude can promote us or demote us in life. When we face challenges, our character is put to the test. You're either going to be polished and sharpened or turn dull and tarnish over time.
We cannot blame anyone for our attitudes. It is our responsibility to maintain a positive outlook even when challenges arise or when we experience prosperity and good success. You may not always feel like being positive and having a positive attitude.
I get that. I understand that. However, those are the moments you have to make a conscious decision to be positive intentionally.
Are you blaming people for your overly negative attitude and perspective on life? Life happens to us all. As they say, "The storm may be around you, but don't let it get in you." Storms come and go, but your attitude, with God's help, should be positive and optimistic on some level, as life presents challenges. You cannot always control what challenges you will face, but you can control what attitude you will have.
Fine tune your attitude like musicians fine tune their instruments. Who wants to play an instrument out of tune? The same goes for your attitude. No one wants to be around a person who's attitude is out of tune for too long.
Now let's see what John C. Maxwell has to say about the importance of attitude.
.We are in charge of our attitudes.
.Our attitudes make the difference in leading others.
.Leadership has a lot to do with your disposition. The disposition of a leader is important because it will influence the way the followers think and feel.
.The right attitude will set the right atmosphere, which enables the right responses from others.
.Our attitudes determine what we see and how we handle our feelings.
.Our expectations have a lot to do with our attitudes.
.Once our minds are tattooed with negative thinking, our chances for long-term success diminish.
.Sooner or later, the man who wins is the man who thinks he can.
.Attitude trumps ability. Your attitude will impact your ability.
.Life is full of surprises and the adjustment of our attitude is a lifelong project.
.The attitude of a leader is to adjust the sails.
.Strengthen a positive attitude.
.We choose what attitudes we will have.
The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That's the day we truly grow up.
.No matter what you think about your attitude it shows on your face!
.It is important that I possess a great attitude, not only for my own success, but also for the benefit of others.
.Improve your attitude.
.Positive attitudes recover quicker than negative one's.
.Reframing your attitude means: I may not be able to change the world I see around me, but I can change the way I see the world within me.
.Over a period of time a positive attitude can replace a negative one.
.We must constantly prune and weed out bad habits and bad behavior so that our lives can be lush and green in our quest for a happy and productive life.
