Attitude is the one thing all human beings have complete control of and yet many unknowingly choose a negative attitude. If we understood the power of our own attitude in our lives, most of us would change it immediately. How many times have you been told to change your attitude? That is a common order from most parents and teachers!

 

Attitude is created by your thoughts, feelings and actions. Your mind controls feelings and decides whether these feelings will be positive or negative through your thoughts. Your body then follows these thoughts through actions and behaviors. It sounds simplistic because it is.

 

Through our thoughts, we create an attitude. This attitude is expressed based on how we internalize ideas. Our mind and body move into a new vibration of conscious awareness known as feelings. These feelings are then displayed through actions and behaviors that produce the results in our lives.

 

Attitude [Thoughts + Feelings + Actions] = Results

Imagine feeding our minds with positive thoughts and flow through the process. We will end with positive results. Now imagine feeding our minds with negative thoughts and flow through the process. Makes sense, doesn’t it?

 

By changing our thoughts, we can change our attitude, which will ultimately change our results. Attitude is the creative cycle that allows us to feel a certain way and then take the necessary action to a specific result.

 

Start with the end in mind and make the decision that today is the day to change your attitude!

    Hi Deb! Great thoughts on attitude. I can always use a reminder that I am in total control of my attitude. So easy to let circumstances mold my thoughts and give in to negative thoughts and ultimately negative actions.
    Thanks again,
    Dan

    Attitude is an amazing thing. We enjoy being around individuals with positive attitudes because they build you up.
    We like a quote from Lou Holtz, “Ability is what you are capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.”

    Awesome word! Deb keep up the hard work in changing lives! Your passion and attitude is contagious!
