Having the right attitude is what counts. One
should have the correct attitude in order to lift himself up in life. A
positive mind and happy upbeat attitude will help you succeed. A person living
in a happy state generally gets much more in just everything they do. Bad
attitude pulls you down and won’t help you get your goal.
Attitude advice from a pup
My dog Yahoo turned one-year-old yesterday
and she celebrated the day by doing what she does everyday – living it to the
fullest! How does a puppy understand that the attitude with which we approach
each day goes a long way towards defining how the day goes for us?
If you assign numbers to English alphabets in
the ascending order, starting from 1you will find the word ‘ATTITUDE’ will
exactly count to Hundred (A=1, T=20, I=9, U=21, D=4, E=5). This is Amazing! It
pays to have the right attitude.
We picked up Yahoo 10 months ago and she had
been a part of our family since. I take her for a walk every morning and
evening – in the cold, in the dark, in the rain and in the heat. I have learned
from her the meaning of attitude. Every morning we start off on a journey, me
with my thoughts already beginning to organize my day and Yahoo with an open
mind and full of energy and excitement. Every day, she looks for the squirrels,
cats and occasional worms that may be out that morning. It’s not the actual
sight of them that excites her, it’s the anticipation!
Yahoo understands the power of a positive
attitude and how that attitude will determine how successful she will be that
day and in her life. The same applies to people. After all, what do people
notice first about you? Your attitude! This first impression has a great impact
on all your personal and business relationships, and the great thing about a
positive attitude is that it is not a product of heredity. With the right
training and personal discipline, anyone can acquire and develop a great
attitude.
What will you choose – a Positive attitude or
a negative attitude?
The choice of positive attitude itself is
easy, but sticking to that choice no matter what the setbacks are can be
difficult. Always focusing on long term goals is one key to getting past the
inevitable bumps that may occur. Another good habit is maintaining a positive
inner dialogue through daily affirmations or, as some people do, use
visualization to keep on the right course.
If you want to develop a more positive
attitude, then you need to identify and stop any current negative attitudes
that you may have. You will need to understand any underlying causes of your
negative attitudes and you will need to rid yourself of the habits that
supports these negative attitudes. Once you have identified what it is that’s
holding you back, you are ready to take the next step and analyse where you
want to see growth and development in your life. In order for anyone to be
successful, they must understand the importance of living their life with
purpose and passion. And, this must be their own purpose and passion.
Yahoo has taught me a very valuable lesson.
The day in front of us is all we have, so live it to the fullest. She does not
think it is too cold, too wet or any of a thousand negative thoughts, and she
just goes on her walk. Yahoo simply wants to go and greet the day, whatever it
may bring. And now she has me doing that same thing. I look forward to the
newness each day brings and enjoy it wherever I find it. By the end of our
daily walk, we are both in a great frame of mind and ready to face the day. We
should all strive for a very positive attitude, which is the call of the day.
The Positive thinker, sees the Invisible,
Feels the intangible and achieves the impossible. One thing that stands in the
way of Success is your ability to believe in yourself. A positive mind and
Happy, upbeat attitude will help you succeed. A person living in a happy state
generally gets much more in everything he does. Bad attitude pulls you down and
won’t help you meet your goal. Positivity brings Prosperity.
Always be Positive and be a Winner Always!
Be Blissful.
